In Triumph provides an answer for homeless teens that were never selected for adoption and for those young adults who have come to a “complete end” due to severe substance abuse or parental neglect. We only enroll 18 to 24 year olds that are aware of their need for help. Although we remain dedicated to the commission of feeding, clothing, and sheltering the “least of these,” our primary focus is providing the framework where a genuine commitment to Christ can be fostered.
As we have made ourselves accessible to every homeless young adult, our primary focuses are as follows.
Due to the influx and massive amounts of teens aging out of the foster care system with disorders and addictions throughout the U.S., it has seemed almost impossible for the church or state to respond to such a colossal area of need. This burden resulted in allowing us to partake in shouldering this responsibility, while providing a biblical solution. As secular institutions continue to treat humanity’s fallen nature with psychiatric medications and therapy, we have come to fully understand that the “root” of the problem is depravity. And unlike any other diagnoses, when total depravity is recognized, a total transformation is possible.
It is difficult to consider, though at times necessary, institutionalizing every drug addicted youth as an answer for correcting their habitual and external behaviors. As many times as “success rates” are implied, one cannot negate the evidence of the “relapse rates” within our secular facilities. Unfortunately, some institutions have become a “bad seed” by capitalizing on financial gain rather than an individual’s restoration, and thus offering only provisional answers instead of indefinite ones.
Today’s self-esteem, self-love, or any other varieties of self-centeredness methods are defective from the beginning. The Bible states that our depraved nature is impossible to improve upon. In Triumph has taken a classical approach to mentoring young adults. Our trivium helps them navigate to the root of their issues, and with a sincere commitment to Christ, these “unchosen” young adults leave our care In Christ and In Triumph.
