About Restored Light

A ministry of Light of the World Ministries International

Dr. Christina Asare

Senior Minister and Pastoral Counselor

For years, people have come to me after abuse, a sudden loss, or something that happened to them in church. Many of them said the same thing. They felt like they had to pick between getting better and keeping their faith.

I don’t think anyone should have to choose. That’s why I started Restored Light. I wanted a place where Scripture and what we know about trauma can sit side by side.

I’m a Senior Minister at Light of the World Ministries International in Franklin, Virginia. I have a PhD in Technology Innovation, and I’m completing a Doctor of Ministry at Liberty University, focusing on pastoral counseling. What I write here comes from that training and from a lot of time spent with people in their hardest seasons.

About the Ministry

Light of the World Ministries International serves our local community and beyond. Through Restored Light, we extend that support past Sunday morning.
