Here in the United States we have become a disposable throwaway society. Things that have function and use, we retain, maintain, utilize and even cherish. However, if anything ceases to function well, we tend to replace, discard and throw it away. This may be economically effective when we consider time and money. However, when we consider the depletion and waste of resources, the long-term effects may be extremely costly. This is especially true concerning people. Freedom Ranch Ministries is concerned with reclaiming the lives of people. In the State of Texas as in every other state, thousands of men and women every year fall prey to severe depression, drug and alcohol abuse, and criminal activity.

Many through their youth have never been presented with any plan for successful living. They appear to almost naturally turn to the use and sale of illegal drugs and other criminal activity. They see that as the only way to obtain the things they think will make them happy and content. They have not been given the analytical tools or spiritual and moral values to enable themselves to look beyond their instant self-gratification. They do not see the long-term effects on either their own lives or the lives of others. They have never developed a realistic vision for life.

Many others, even with some spiritual training have succumb to the pressures of life, poor choices, failed marriages, bad employment experiences, failure to develop realistic goals, etc. They have developed low self-esteem and see little or no hope for happiness and contentment. They have lost any vision for the future. In attempts to run from their frustration and depression, many have fallen into the abuse of drugs and alcohol. Making poor choices, many become involved in criminal activity, as they see no other way out of their situation. Others even choose the option to attempt suicide.

Freedom Ranch can be that place for many. Freedom Ranch a place set apart to restore or implant realistic Vision for the future.
