Beloved, each one of us is on our own unique and personal journey in finding the Truth. Every person is intentionally knitted in their mother's womb with a very specific purpose in mind, only they can fulfill with their life story. Aligning with that truth and seeking it with all your heart, soul, and strength will allow you to arise to your highest calling and become fully alive as the Creator intended it to be, for His glory. All are called, many will respond, few will actually follow. This is how my story begins:
In November of 2005, I was practicing patience by standing in line of a famous coffee shop that happens to be on every corner of America. The stark smell of freshly grounded coffee beans with a hint of Chai danced in the air and tickled my nose. Many kinds of different conversations filled the room, but nothing could have prepared me for the kind of conversation I was about to have. As I stood in the line clenching my bible close to my chest, a “messenger” walked into the front door and headed in my direction. This woman approached me and immediately asked if she could see my bible because she had a word to give to me, from the Lord.
“Of course,” I responded.
She took the inspired word of God and thumbed through the pages as if she knew something the world did not. She was intriguing and I had a natural urge to want to connect with her, although the feelings were not mutual. As I searched for words to relate to her, I fumbled,
“Um, so tell me, who are you and what do you do?”
Still seeking for the verse, she glanced up at me and our eyes connected for a brief moment,
“I work for the Lord” she answered directly.
“What do you mean, you work for the Lord?” I questioned.
“Yes, that’s right, I work for the Lord. I work for Him overseas.”
I was itching to ask more questions as the mystery of this messenger was overwhelming me and I felt there was something supernatural taking place. I just couldn’t quite put my finger on it, in the current moment.
“Here, this is it; this is the verse He wants you to read.”
I glanced down and her perfectly pointed finger was directing my eyes towards Jeremiah 29:11-14.
“He wants you to read it now.”
She handed me The Word and I began to read out loud...

“For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord. Plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”
By the time I finished reading, I looked up and my Angel had disappeared. She was nowhere to be found. Her mission had been completed.
I tell you this story because this was one of the first of several events that God began to perform to lead me to this ministry. Jeremiah 1:12 says “He is watching over His word to perform it,” and let me start by singing from the rooftop of how He loves to perform for us if we are willing to believe.
My life song has not always echoed a passion of seeking the Lord’s face. In fact, I began my life running the other direction and chasing the finer things of this world. I successfully learned how to dig a pit so deep, I myself would later marvel at just how far and wide I could dig. By the grace of God, I was offered to choose life or death and I chose to LIVE! The truth of Ephesians 2:8-9 began to morph into the marrow of my own bones and I genuinely began to believe, “it is by grace you have been saved, through faith – and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God- not by works, so that no one can boast.”
God has shown me over the years how to love when it is hard, how to show forgiveness when there is no forgiveness left, and how to uncover an authentic relationship with the Almighty and with others. Through much testing and continued refining, He has grown my faith to a place I did not think existed. I have learned to trust God and to not lean on my own understanding. This is something that has taken time and lots of nurturing. I am nowhere near the end of this journey. Joyfully I report that I still have so much to learn, many more years of breaking, molding, and crafting by the Great Refiner's hands. I would presume the day I figure it all out, is the day He takes me home.
My greatest desire and purpose for this ministry is to ignite a fresh explosion of faith, for all people through hearing the word of God and different testimonies (Romans 10:17, Revelation 12:11).
There is complete freedom and restoration for those who believe in Christ, who have been made new and restored back to their original created value after the fall in Genesis.
Jesus did not pay the radical price He payed, so He could "bless you." He paid it so He could put life back inside you and fill you with His Holy Spirit! It is not about getting something from Him, it's about becoming like Him!
The Lord has sent me to help bind up the brokenhearted and to proclaim freedom for the captive. I long to see a revival of Love not only in the church but throughout the entire world.
Holly Wright was born on December 17 and grew up in the sweet city of Sugar Land, Texas. At the early age of ten, Holly’s passion for teaching became evident when she would persuade her sister and all her neighborhood friends to sit for hours while she play-acted as their teacher. Her gift of communication helped to convince her father to buy an overhead projector so she could pretend to be the real thing. As soon as Holly hit her teenage years and boys were introduced to the picture, she forgot all about her first love, teaching!
Holly often speaks about how her early teen years were committed to the dark pit. She says that she had dug a hole so deep that in hindsight she would later marvel at how far and wide she could actually dig. It wasn’t until her Savior literally reached down and pulled her out of her mess, that she recognized how badly she needed the forgiving grace and mercy of Jesus Christ.
On August 4, 2004 she heard “the call” loud and clear while driving and listening to worship music on the radio. Holly said, “It must had been the Holy Spirit driving my car because after hearing His voice, I had no idea how I drove from point A to point B.” It was that car ride that confirmed to her the Lord was calling her, even though she had no clue how or when He was going to use her. She spent several years studying the scriptures and taking the time to fall in love with Jehovah. During a portion of that time her marriage went through the refiners fire and through many trials and testing, it surfaced on the other side as purified. During this time of waiting on the Lord to bring forth her specific calling, she reconnected with her first love, which was teaching. Although this time her passion was laser-beam-focused on spreading the Word of God and reinforcing what authentic relationship looks like with the King!
Holly quit her full-time job and founded For The Brokenhearted Ministry in 2011 with the purpose of taking her own MESS and turning it into her MESSage. She saw her TEST's clearly as a TESTimony and wanted to glorify God in sharing them with anyone who would listen. She passionately teaches the body of Christ how to effectively apply the Word of God to everyday life. She endeavors to make the bible applicable through her unique style of using analogies and storytelling in her teaching and speaking engagements. God gifted her with a vivacious personality through which she uses animation to make a point, and her contagious enthusiasm simply cannot be contained.
Holly and her husband, Jason, attend Sandbox Church of Houston, Texas. Holly speaks at various churches, ministries, and retreats around the Houston area, throughout Texas and on occasion out of state. She has written adult Sunday School material for multiple campuses at Second Baptist Church of Houston, while teaching Sunday School and leading women’s bible study classes through church and also in her home.
In 2014, Holly clearly heard another prompting from the Holy Spirit which caused her to have great compassion for rescued sex trafficked victims. She partnered with The Freedom Place to bring relationship and the love of Jesus to the girls who are under their care after being rescued from the trade. The Freedom Place is a Christian based organization that fully funds and rehabilitates rescued girls from the age of nine to eighteen.
In 2017, Holly opened The Secret Garden, which is a safe place for all women to gather corporately and commune with God while unlocking hidden secrets on the journey of digging deeper. The vision entails growing deeper with God and our awareness of Him, learning how to partner with the Holy Spirit for practical everyday living, learning how to recognize God's voice in our own lives and experiencing freedom, while being inspired! The Secret Garden meets in the Fall and Spring.
Jason and Holly have been blessed with two children, Alexis (“Lexi”) Nicole and Noah Alexander. It is her children who have brought the deepest and most profound joy into her life.
