Weave & Cleave
Creating communities of belonging
The Success of the Movement!
This video premiered at April's Third Annual Weave and Cleave Conference! Our movement's success is a testament to over 50 statewide leaders, 75 faith-based organizations, 150 trainings, and annual conferences drawing 300+ participants and 50+ experts. We also exemplify strong collaboration with the Maricopa County Department of Public Health and the Governor’s Office of Youth, Faith, and Family, creating communities of belonging anchored in unconditional love, trauma-informed care, and cultural transformation.
Listen to our latest podcast!
Jeff and Carissa grew up in two different states with very different childhood experiences. They accepted Christ at different ages, and came into adulthood with different plans for their futures. Then, they met, married, and started a ministry. Now, they integrate their differences to strengthen their work. Jeff, a lifelong learner and public high school teacher who cares deeply about helping people grow in their faith through Scripture, is the head of Reset Ministries. Carissa, who's passionate about discipleship and awakening others to the presence of God in their emotional healing, is the heart.
Join Sanghoon and Michelle as they talk with Jeff and Carissa about how they approach ministry--as individuals and as a couple--and how they find their own reset in the midst of bivocational ministry that demands a lot of listening, presence, and soul care.
This episode affirms the power of God, the power of presence, and the transformation that's possible when people help each other find healing. Listen in.
The next Reset Retreat is October 23 – 24, 2026. Register here: https://resetministries.us/retreat/

Collaborating with the Maricopa County Department of Public Health, TFC launches the “Creating Communities of Belonging” project to support faith communities in building safe spaces and relationships where people experience being connected before being corrected, share struggles in the context of compassionate relationships, and raise hope and resilience for the future journey together.
