A Personal Update
For years, Original Design Restored (ODR) has developed and facilitated intensives, growth groups, a podcast, and free resources; however, in June 2024, one of Katie’s sons was diagnosed with a severe childhood illness that he has been fighting since.
Since then, ODR events and new resources have been on pause as Katie has fully focused her energy toward her family.
However, the ODR website remains live as a hub for numerous free resources that facilitate healing and growth at the intersection of the Gospel, personal narrative, and experiential learning.
In this season, Katie has been gaining loads of lived experience in walking through trauma, loss, suffering, and grief. She hopes to share more of that here one day. To engage with what Katie is learning currently, click here.
If you are looking for a good place to start your healing journey or the next steps on that journey, take some time to explore our free resources below.
Free Resources
At Original Design Restored, we hope to facilitate transformation through practical discipleship. One of the ways we work toward that goal is by creating free resources that are easily accessible for personal and spiritual growth. These free resources include our podcast (click here to listen), our workbook (click here to read), and a handful of other practical resources (click here to access those).
What we do…
Original Design Restored exists at the intersection of the Gospel, Personal Narrative, and Experiential Learning. ODR aims to facilitate transformation in individuals through honest and vulnerable self-reflection and sharing in a supportive cohort of trusted others while encountering the person, power, and presence of Jesus. We create these spaces primarily through our Intensives, Growth Groups, Workbook, and Podcast.
If you are at a moment in life where you want to take a step toward healing and growth, we hope that we can journey alongside you in some way. Some of these resources you can engage on your own, while others are designed for a group setting. If you would like to stay up to date about future ODR groups and events, please sign up for our email list below.
