Rev. Wynn Cameron Thompson, since 1996, has been the executive director and founder of Restoring Wholeness Ministries dealing with relational and sexual issues within the Church. As an American, Wynn’s story takes him from a solid Christian home upbringing in Los Angeles, California to being raped at the age of six. The streets of Hollywood became his way of life as a teenager. Sex, drugs and the entertainment industry became his god as he looked for his identity and satisfaction in life. Dysfunction in many forms continued until Wynn got sick and tired of being sick and tired in 1985 and turned to God.

After years of healing he became a missionary in Europe with Youth With A Mission. During the years that followed he gained training in theology and therapy as studied with international schools. Wynn has travelled to many countries ministering and teaching in the area of relational and sexual brokenness as well as leadership training. He is an ordained minister, international teacher, speaker, life therapist/counsellor, author, and is a former member of the Exodus Europe, Africa and Middle East Board.

Together with the South African Restoring Wholeness team of seven, Wynn first created the Restoring Wholeness LIFE Matters Equipping Leader’s Course. From then on he created several specific LIFE Matters 8-16 week support programs dealing with topics such as ‘dysfunctional families and shame’, ‘abuse’, ‘addiction’, ‘unwanted same-sex attraction’, and ‘co-dependency’ and more.

Wynn was one of nine authors who contributed individual chapters in the book, Big God Big Life by Anthony Liebenberg. His chapter, “The crisis of sexual identity in today’s family and church” spells out the issues as well as solutions facing the family and the Church in today’s society in this much avoided issue of life.

In 2009 God called Wynn back to the USA to build Restoring Wholeness Ministries in Arizona. Wynn also married his child-hood sweetheart, Judi, and now live in Tucson, Arizona. Since then he assembled a board who governs Restoring Wholeness Ministries, created a team of leaders who help run support groups and Leader’s training courses. We have teamed with Chi Alpha in Arizona, Central City Assembly church, and affiliated with Restored Hope Network. He continues with Restoring Wholeness team members to travel to Ukraine, Switzerland, South Africa, England and Europe to minister God’s hope and healing.

In 2021, after 3 years of writing, PRODIGAL a Journey to Freedom from Abuse and Addiction was published by Wheatmark in Arizona. It is available Through Amazon: https://smile.amazon.com/Prodigal-Journey-Freedom-Abuse-Addiction/dp/1627879145/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8 ; Apple iBook’s; Google Play Store; and Barns & Noble.

Facebook, X and Instagram have had their pros and cons… …but one thing is for sure…I’m thankful for the ability to keep in contact with all those who I have had the privilege to cross paths with and come to know around the world. Some of you are close friends and others are acquaintances – nevertheless as I scroll down my “Friends” list I have nothing but love and fond memories. Sometimes I feel loneliness because I can’t see you more…

I’d like to share a thought I believe the Lord gave me regarding entitlement and the ongoing struggle that so many Christians have when they lose sight of the awesome privilege of God’s grace. I can best illustrate this concept with a story. An adult visits his parents at their home for a two-week stay. He is very close to them, but has been living in another country for some time. During his visit, he falls into his old habits…

“I gave up too soon.” A few years ago I was helping out with our church’s ‘feed the homeless’ outreach. When all the meals had been served a lady walked up and asked for a second helping of food. A minute before the chef took that tray away that had some of the food on it. She looked and said, ‘Oh well’, then passed by. A few minutes later the chef returned with a bit more food. I called out…

What IS real repentance? 2 Kings 22-23:25 22:11 “When the king heard what was written in the book, God’s Revelation, he ripped his robes in dismay.” (Message) “The impressions which the reading of the law made upon Josiah were that he rent his clothes, as one ashamed of the sin of his people and afraid of the wrath of God; he had long thought his kingdom was in a bad state, by reason of the idolatries and impieties that had…

Who Is Responsible? Ezekiel 3:20 – NIV “Again, when a righteous person turns from their righteousness and does evil, and I put a stumbling-block before them, they will die. Since you did not warn them, they will die for their sin. The righteous things that person did will not be remembered, and I will hold you accountable for their blood.” “Who Is Responsible” by Wynn Cameron Thompson Seems like the more I hear many people talk the more I hear excuses.…

“One thing I do know. I was blind but now I see!”John 9:25b – Starting off a new year brings memories as well as hope for the future. For those of us who have lived a sexually broken lifestyle and have decided to walk away from it and embrace what we believe to be a God-honoring life, I’d like to say don’t stop believing, don’t stop bathing yourself in Jeremiah 29:11-13. May I say that I have personally experienced something…

Genesis 2:7 “…then the Lord God formed the man of ch. dust from the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living creature.” First God created our body…then He breather into it His eternal Spirit. When the two combined the soul, our memories, thoughts and emotions were created. As I grew up in church most of the teaching I received revolved around the ‘spiritual’ part of humans. we were taught repeatedly about spiritual matters. During that time I…

It wasn’t until I was introduced to Restoring Wholeness ministries back in 2010 that I came to understand much of my life I had been living in fear, fear of rejection, fear of failure, and fear of abandonment just to name a few. My only coping mechanisms for dealing with these cruel feelings were ones I was deeply ashamed of, keeping in great secret. Growing up in a home with pretty much no reverence for God and all reverence for…
