About the Academy 

Give Her Wings Academy was created to train church leaders, members, Christian counselors, therapists, first responders, family and friends, etc., to care for spiritual widows and orphans in their churches and communities. It is our belief that the church should be serving women who they see are experiencing abuse from their husbands. We believe that God values these women and their children more than their marriages, but many churches and church leaders do not have the resources or training that helps them serve these women well. Our Academy provides this training and these resources through video lectures given by licensed therapists, survivors, and well-known authors. It is our prayer that those who graduate from the Academy will feel confident in their God-given ability to serve and help these women well.
