It is an honor to share a few thoughts on the powerful book The Healing Power of Boundaries by Dr. Jean Heder Petit-Frere.
This book highlights an important truth about life and relationships: not all suffering is necessary—some of it comes from a lack of healthy boundaries.
As the author explains, misapplied theology can sometimes justify pain that God never intended for us to carry. This book brings clarity and healing to situations in marriage and relationships where boundaries are missing.
Marriage, in God’s design, is meant to be joyful, loving, supportive, and life-giving. When that is missing, it may be a sign that boundaries need to be understood and restored.
One powerful insight shared is how imbalance in responsibility can slowly create resentment, where one partner over-functions while the other under-functions. Over time, silence can start feeling like peace—but it is not true peace.
This book is not about blaming or fixing others, but about restoring honesty, trust, grace, and truth in relationships. It encourages readers to reflect on their own hearts while keeping Christ at the center.
Whether you are married or single, this book offers wisdom that can help you before problems arise, not just after.
Two powerful reminders from the book are:
Highly recommended for anyone seeking healthier relationships and deeper understanding of boundaries in light of God’s truth.
My name is Armando Lara. In the picture, I am with my wife, Delmy, on a day in March 2026 when we carried out a prophetic act to reclaim territory for Jesus.
When I first met Jean, I immediately enjoyed being around him. Somehow, I sensed that I needed to connect with him.
Later, I met John in Las Vegas in January 2026. During that meeting, he shared valuable connections with me and gave me the English version of the book “When Faith and Capacity Meet.”
After reading just a couple of paragraphs, I was deeply impressed by its message. I immediately began working on translating it into Spanish so it could reach more people.
As I continued reading, I began following the 21-day journey outlined in the book, intentionally applying the principles each day. Gradually, my mindset started to change. I began thinking differently about wealth, provision, and opportunities in life.
When I first met Jean, I was both financially broken and emotionally drained. My wife was sick, and I felt hopeless. I had many doubts and questions about provision and financial stability.
But as I read the book, my faith was renewed. The principles of stewardship and provision began to take root within me, and my attitude started changing for the better. I became more joyful, hopeful, and full of faith in Christ.
My first focus was to apply these principles in my own life.
As I experienced personal growth, I began sharing the teachings of this book with people in Africa and Latin America—and they received it with great enthusiasm.
Today, I live with greater peace regardless of circumstances. I now understand that I am connected to the infinite supply found in Jesus Christ, my Creator.
I am also sharing pictures of individuals I am mentoring, as their lives are being transformed for the glory of God. We now have leaders and participants engaging with these teachings across multiple nations, including India, Pakistan, Zambia, Uganda, Kenya, Zimbabwe, and the Congo, as well as across Latin communities in Mexico, Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua, Panama, Colombia, and the Dominican Republic.
“I was so confused and broke financially that I couldn’t even afford basic necessities. But now I know I am connected with God, the Provider.”
María Eugenia Blanco was born to a father who was an inventor. She is a teacher and a single mother living in Colombia.
While reading the Spanish version of the book “When Faith and Capacity Meet”, Eugenia discovered the importance of how we think and speak about provision.
She related deeply to the widow mentioned in the book and began to see how blessed she truly is. She realized that the Lord has invested many talents and gifts within her life.
Eugenia also reflected on her father’s life. Although he was an inventor, he passed away in poverty due to a disconnection from financial responsibility and a lack of care in that area.
Through this journey, Eugenia has come to understand the importance of taking daily action as an expression of faith in God as our Provider.
She has experienced deep poverty and many moments of misunderstanding, yet she continues to dream big. She has developed a creative ability to produce fuel from plastic bottles, sells plants and eggs, and is now planning to open a coffee space within her plant business.
Eugenia acknowledges that after many disappointments, it can be difficult to believe again. However, she continues to hold on to faith for a brighter future while taking practical steps forward.
She often shares that real change begins when a person is willing to take responsibility, overcome pride, and try again with renewed hope and action.
Your transformation begins with one powerful conversation — and the life you want is closer than you think.
“I joined Mindco feeling mentally overwhelmed and disconnected from my work. The coaching process helped me rediscover my strengths and purpose. For the first time in years, I feel aligned with the direction I'm taking in life.”
