Meet Blaine.

Unvarnished Story

Blaine Bartel has a curious resume.

Provincial Judo champion at 14. Come on somebody. Freestyle Skiing gold medalist at 17. Yea, he’ll show you the medal. National television show by the time he was 26. Built the largest weekly gathering of students in America by age 39. Planted and pastored one of the fast-growing churches in North Dallas.

All this, plus best-selling books and keynoting at America’s largest Christian events. Then along came 2010.

Blaine hit a brick wall at breakneck speed. It resulted in the disclosure of a 20-plus year addiction to pornography and sexual vice.

After a pretty decent attempt to end his life, Blaine was sent to a brutal month of rehab. They talked recovery. And more recovery. A lot of recovery. A year later, as Blaine was driving his Volkswagen from Kansas City to Tulsa, he heard a whisper in his heart. Out of nowhere.

 “I’m not going to give you a recovery. I am calling you into resurrection.”

Over the years to follow, Blaine experienced a dramatic transformation in every part of his life. The old Blaine Bartel fully died. Was buried. A new Blaine rose from the ashes.

Blaine has been on mission ever since to help every person he meets discover the sheer joy of resurrected living.

He has a special place in his heart for Pastors and spiritual leaders.

Not long ago, a good friend asked Blaine, “When you were living in your secret world of hopelessness and addiction, what is the one thing you wanted most?”

Without hesitation Blaine replied, “I would have given anything to have a confidential advocate outside of my ministry world that I could have shared my struggles with openly, without any fear of exposure.”

The friend looked back at Blaine and said, “Why don’t you provide a space like that today for today’s pastors and spiritual leaders?”

One year later, The Confessional was born.

Here’s Blaine’s promise to you:

He will listen. He will pray. He will provide any guidance you ask for. All done in total confidentiality, without any fear of disclosure to another soul.

Blaine believes something supernatural is released though confession and prayer. The Apostle James put it like this:

“Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective.”

Reach out today. You have nothing to lose and everything to gain.
