ABOUT JILL
The Heart of the Matter
Liberating Truth was born at the intersection of ministry, research, and lived experience. For more than 15 years, Jill Simms, PhD has served believers, particularly church leaders, by addressing what often goes unnamed — the hidden heart conditions that fuel discord, division, and disunity within the church. Her doctoral research on church discord deepened what years of ministry had already revealed: when conflict is ignored or mishandled, it fractures trust, relationships, and purpose.
Most ministries address the symptoms. Liberating Truth goes deeper. Through biblical truth, practical tools, and the HEAL framework, Jill helps leaders confront the root conditions that stand in the way of healing, restoration, and unity.

WHAT WE BELIEVE
Core Values
The principles that guide every teaching, every conversation, and every resource within the Liberating Truth platform.
Agape Love
We lead with love rooted in truth, not comfort, avoidance, or performance.
Discernment
Flash-in-the-pan fixes don’t last. While we acknowledge the symptoms, we address the root.
Truth
We name what is real and relevant, even when uncomfortable, because freedom lives there.
Growth Mindset
We embrace ongoing learning through humility and correction as essential to spiritual maturity.
Unity
We address what divides so that connections can be established, breaches can be restored, and indelible relationships will endure.
Practicality
We embrace ongoing learning through humility and correction as essential to spiritual maturity.
Transformation
Lasting change begins in the heart and is evidenced through words and actions.
THE FRAMEWORK
The HEAL Framework
All teaching and transformation work is anchored in four core pillars drawn from Scripture — the building blocks of lasting unity.
The path to unity begins when we are willing to HEAL.
