Welcome to our Website!

Forrest Ministries is about a dream to bring answers to Theological questions and Pastoral Care to as large an audience as possible. Our hope is that the love of Christ will touch your life and that his Spirit will set you free.

Why do we call ourselves Forrest Ministries? Well the reason is that many of the people we minister to describe their circumstances when dealing with spiritual, anxiety and depression issues as being like lost inside a deep Forrest. Our goal is to help them find their way out and find wholeness.

Also I would like to invite you to my new website at trevor-forrester.org and journey with me as I lay out the journey that I have taken through suffering and pain and back again. It is a story that I believe will cause many to question their faith and to re-examine the reasons why we deny the existence of God.

This journey started in 1994 and has not yet reached a conclusion so please follow me and find the source of all resistance to that which ails us in our life today.
