Welcome to Adventures of the Heart

“If I had known what this Expedition was going to do for my heart and my relationship with Jesus, I would have gladly paid $10,000 to attend—it was that life changing.”

2026 Georgia EXPEDITION

“For the first time in my life I heard God speaking directly to me. I have finally felt and know His perfect and overwhelming love. He has told me that I am loved. That he will, and is, restoring me. My heart had been completely shut down since I was a child. I had anger I couldn’t explain. It had damaged my wife and kids, but Jesus is taking that away. He has promised to restore my heart to what it should be – a heart of a man in His image.”

2026 Georgia EXPEDITION

“If I were to put this expedition into a single word it would be “incomprehensible” because the healing of wounds, the breaking of even more soul ties, the shattering of more lies…I feel like a warrior again, with an uncanny confidence and courage that the roller coaster of sin-management is transformed into a rocket ship trajectory.”

2026 Georgia EXPEDITION

“Thank you so much for your heart and your ministry. I don’t think I would be married if it were not for you and the way you pour into men to find their strength and recover their hearts. I have a renewed mission and vision for my life & Quarters 3-4 of my life.”

2026 Georgia EXPEDITION

“I have attended lots and lots of leadership conferences and this was by far the best one I have ever been part of because it was so real, authentic, and enabled me to experience Jesus as never before and recover my heart.”

2026 Georgia EXPEDITION

“My experience was amazing. One of the best things in my life.”

2025 California EXPEDITION

“God showed me how to lead my wife and kids. Be the leader of the family with confidence and courage. God instructed me to give everything to Him when I’m becoming passive, give it to Him. I feel free and ready to fight for my heart in life everyday.”

2025 California EXPEDITION

“God really opened my eyes. Through his expedition, God has shown me forgiveness, how to have courage, a solution to issues, and love I needed to heal my heart.”

2025 California EXPEDITION

“God spoke to me and I listened for the first time. On my first trip it was life changing and on my second trip here it was easier to let Him in and just having Him guide me for the past year has changed my life for the better.”

2025 California EXPEDITION

“This expedition has been a total re-alignment of my identity. Diving deeper in who God made me to be. Seeing His pursuit over my life and how He has protected me.  I am walking in greater freedom than ever”

2025 California EXPEDITION

“This has truly been an eye opening and life changing experience. The Lord has spoken directly to my heart, my broken heart. Reminding me that it’s okay to not be okay. He reminded me that I am His son. That He is working on my heart, putting the pieces back together.”

2025 California EXPEDITION

“I heard from God about my masculinity. I am a warrior, adventurer, lover. This was my first time, so new message for me. I heard from God that I am more valuable than worldly accomplishments. Relationships are what matter. I heard from God that I need to re-engage pursuing my wife.”

2025 California EXPEDITION

“I am so grateful for the AOTH team and your leadership. You woke me up and helped me find a deeper and more meaningful relationship with Jesus.”

2025 Georgia EXPEDITION

“I heard from God that I am enough. In fact I am His beloved son and heir and this is the best news I have ever heard so I want to partner with Jesus and walk with Him for the rest of my life.”

2025 Georgia EXPEDITION

“This retreat has been life changing.”

2025 Georgia EXPEDITION

“If God’s son died for me and paid the price for my sin; why do I feel guilty, dirty, and living in that oppressive roller coaster of shame? Why do I let myself and others treat me as if I was not worthy of God’s love. Like the prodigal son, I’m running back to my Father’s house, where I lack nothing. Thank you thank you thank you!”

2025 Georgia EXPEDITION

“He broke off old beliefs, gave me new confirmations, courage, and built and strengthened faith.”

2025 Georgia EXPEDITION

“God spoke to me in several ways, He restored my heart and has shown me how much He loves me and wants to pursue an intimate relationship with me.”

2025 Georgia EXPEDITION

“ I feel more free leaving than I have in years. I feel ready to pick up my armor and get into the battle. Thank you, my band of brothers. This was exactly what I needed to “start” reviving my heart and to stop being the “nice guy” and be the warrior God has made me to be.”

2024 TEXAS EXPEDITION

“ This has been a transformation, life changing experience for me. I have been holding onto some things from my childhood that I’ve never known how to deal with. It’s nearly destroyed my family, my marriage and really just my whole life. I never really believed you could actually HEAR from GOD UNTIL FRIDAY MORNING! I am hundreds of thousands of dollars deep now in counseling, EMDR therapy, etc. Nothing has ever really done anything for me. Friday morning God told me to give it to Him. And I did. I am finally free from that terror! Thank you so much for putting this on and the message you guys deliver. It’s been life changing for me!”

2024 TEXAS EXPEDITION

“ This has been life changing and couldn’t have happened at a better and more needed time in my life. I’m excited to restore my masculine heart and begin to use it to continue the journey and build a stronger marriage, stronger relationship with my kids, and stronger bond with my Heavenly Father. I’m ready to adventure and help others begin to awaken who they were meant to be.”

2024 TEXAS EXPEDITION

“ This was again one of the best experiences of my life.”

2024 TEXAS EXPEDITION

“ I heard that God is proud of me and not disappointed in me. The belief that I was a disappointment to God was the core lie that set the stage for all of the other lies in my life. Hearing from God that He is proud of me will change my view of my heart! “

2024 TEXAS EXPEDITION

“ The time here was incredible. I experienced a playful side of God I never had before. God spoke identity over me and commissioned me for the next chapter of my life. I’ve found answers to some of the problems and issues I’ve been having as a father and husband. Really too many experiences to share on this page. But I’ll wrap it up with the last thing Jesus said to me, “you’re free!””

2023 CALIFORNIA EXPEDITION

“ This will definitely change my life going forward. I’ve been shown things I didn’t know about myself and the Lord has loved on me by reminding me about some critical steps/actions I need to take in order to live free.”

2023 CALIFORNIA EXPEDITION

“ I got some real clarification from Jesus on how he sees a number of difficult shame-based events in my life. These are things I felt much unrest about and breaking away enabled me to make space for God to speak. Going forward I will be able to operate with a clean slate. Getting my cup filled by Christ Jesus first and foremost is what I am going to do going forward.”

2023 CALIFORNIA EXPEDITION

“ I transferred my trust to Jesus so I am expecting a life that is completely different than the one I have known for 62 years as I battle for my heart every day in quiet, intimate conversation with Jesus on the journey.”

2023 CALIFORNIA EXPEDITION

“ Hearing from God in a real conversational way was a totally new experience that I have never been able to access until this weekend. God revealed that I am deeply loved and that He truly wants to partner with me in every aspect of my life.”

2023 CALIFORNIA EXPEDITION

“ On this expedition I heard from God. God said “I love you my son.” Before coming here I didn’t know how to talk or hear from God. This expedition has truly changed my life going forward. Hearing from God and talking to God about who I am as a man is like nothing I’ve felt before.”

2023 CALIFORNIA EXPEDITION

“ I spoke to Jesus for the first time this weekend. I did not know He would speak directly to me. This was powerful and validating.”

2023 CALIFORNIA EXPEDITION

“ I feel I can give up my anxiety and discomfort around the complexity of life and trust more in God to lead me.”

2023 CALIFORNIA EXPEDITION

“ This time has been transformational both on the immediate, but also I know for what is to come.”

2023 CALIFORNIA EXPEDITION

“ I cannot wait to continue on the adventure of pursing God in transforming, healing, and sharpening my heart. See you next year!”

2023 CALIFORNIA EXPEDITION

“God showed me how much He loves me. He affirmed me in my masculine journey and gave me a fire to live out of my true self for His glory. This message has already changed everything about my life and I have a hunger to keep going deeper and deeper, with the ultimate goal to live fully free and fully alive in a beautiful relationship with Him.”

2023 CALIFORNIA EXPEDITION

“I have hope, I believe I will see power and victory from living out of my new heart. The best is yet to come! I have freedom and I know that will lead to life in my own life, in my marriage, and with my children.”

2023 CALIFORNIA EXPEDITION

“This year’s expedition has provided the environment, space, and time to hear from Jesus in a more intimate and real way than I ever thought possible in my life. This has been my best Expedition yet and I cannot wait for next year. Thank you from the bottom of my heart with tears in my eyes. Thank you for playing your roles in the larger story so that I can play mine. It is too heartbreaking to imagine where I would be had I not been rescued by Jesus through AOTH.”

AUGUST EXPEDITION

“I have discovered that it is okay to be the man that God made me to be. It is okay to have my convictions and beliefs. I am a warrior! I have a vital role to play in this world the time I am here. I do not have to be a quiet, passive, stepped on, taken advantage of, put down, or numb. I am a friend of God. I have a voice. I have something to offer everyone I meet and know. My masculinity can be fierce, loving, loud, bold, gentle, fun and adventurous…and all of those things are great! This warrior is ready to fight.”

AUGUST EXPEDITION

“For so long I had a warped sense of what being a man was. Through this expedition I have reconnected with true masculinity. What hit me most in this message was the ‘beauty to rescue/reveal.’ Being a man means constant pursuit of my wife to offer my strength.”

AUGUST EXPEDITION

“I came into this week not knowing what to expect; I have a completely different outlook on life, who I am as a man and I’m closer to Jesus. I have fully opened my heart to Jesus and now know He walks with me. While I’ve started the spiritual journey beforehand, this is what I needed to have an intimate relationship with God and myself. I’ve got the tools to live a life of masculinity.”

AUGUST EXPEDITION

“I believe it will change my life by trusting that I am who Jesus says I am. I want to live from my good heart and not one of shame, fear and doubt. He told me that I am strong, fierce, resilient and the leader of my family. My goal is to trust in Him and not listen to the lies the enemy would have me believe.”

AUGUST EXPEDITION

“My life will change dramatically from this weekend. I am excited to digest all my notes in the coming weeks. I will be a better father and husband as I am committed to restoring my heart and looking after my wife’s and kid’s heart.”

AUGUST EXPEDITION

“This was a very powerful expedition for me. I heard from Jesus this week in a way that was profoundly powerful and the clarity that I have about my identity will strongly influence the path of my life.”

AUGUST EXPEDITION

“This is my first expedition and it was very life changing. I spoke to Jesus like I never have before and He laid so many people on my heart that need to be here for years to come.”

AUGUST EXPEDITION

“On Saturday, I felt Jesus forgive me from my sexual past. I am looking forward to returning back to my wife and starting our future adventures and dreams together.”

AUGUST EXPEDITION

“For the first time in my life I have heard from God. There are many great messages within the 5 days, but learning to hear God’s voice has been the biggest benefit to me.”
