About Us
Over twenty years ago Corinne Stanley began to ask the question, “What is truth?” That is when God began to take her on an amazing journey of trust, humility, and trust (again). Finally, He answered her question, “My word is Truth.” Thus, she began a ministry of speaking at women’s and couples retreats to bring the message God had given her in the Tabernacle and the Jewish Festivals. From those messages came the message of the traditional Jewish wedding. These three messages form the speaking ministry of Revealing Journey.
The message revealed in these retreats speaks from the heart of God calling us to “watch My plan.” God’s plan for redemption, forgiveness, atonement, and salvation spoken of in the Old Testament texts and lived by a nation chosen to be His people. God’s message is consistent from beginning to end and is embedded in the Judaic roots of the Bible. We must, therefore, put on Jewish lenses to see more clearly God’s amazing plan for the salvation of the world in His Son written of by Moses and the Prophets.
“When You said, ‘Seek My face,’ my heart said to You, ‘Your face, O Lord, I shall seek.’” Psalm 27:8
It was my children who showed me the Jesus I now know and love. I had enrolled them in a summer childrens program where they first gave their hearts to Jesus. One day my daughter came home from school crying because her teacher asked everyone to raise their hand if they went to church with their families. She couldn’t raise her hand because she didn’t go to church. I told her that wouldn’t happen again and took them to church that Sunday.
Even though I went with them, I still didn’t have the faith of my children. I doubted what they had and was concerned about whether my kids were getting the truth. That is when I began to search for the truth in God’s word. The first time I prayed, I asked God to show me the truth instead of trying to find it on my own.
The very next Sunday was communion, the pastor was teaching on the blood of the Lamb. It was as if my eyes were open for the first time and I knew the truth. I couldn’t wait to get down to the altar and give my life to the Lord.
I prayed God would continue to give me a hunger for the Word and His truth. He has been so faithful and the intense desire has never left me. My life turned from uncertainty to peace, fulfillment and great satisfaction.
When God opened the door for this ministry, He had been preparing me for several years. I truly know this is His work because of the fruit He has brought forth from it. My greatest desire is that everyone will know the Lord, and a hunger will grow inside of them to know His holiness and love. Praise God it is available to each who come to His table.
Corinne speaks at women, couples, and youth retreats as well as leads several Bible studies.
“Make me know your ways, O Lord: Teach me your paths. Lead me in your truth and teach me, For You are the God of my Salvation; For you I wait all the day.” Psalm 25:4-5
I accepted Christ when I was fourteen but it wasn’t until I was twenty-three that I would meet Him face to face.
I attended a Holy of Holies retreat given by my friend Corinne Stanley in 1998. I was asked along for prayer support and what I experienced was life changing. I had never, NEVER, experienced the Word brought to life the way it was presented by Corinne. For the first time the gospel was ALIVE. I had to present myself to the Lord as a living sacrifice, just as He did for me. I had to offer up my life, bitterness, and unforgiving heart to the Lamb of God. I could be made clean and new and walk into His presence unashamed and with boldness.
At that minute I knew what it was to be reborn. I had already been forgiven when I was fourteen, but now I have life. I have purpose. I know, I KNOW, that I was put on this earth to serve a risen Lord!
Since that time the Lord has been showing me how important it is to be immersed in His word, to hear His voice when He calls and to be ready…to always be ready. I don’t want to be left behind suffocating in the dusty air of tradition and immobility. The Spirit of God is alive and moving and I want to be a part of it.

Ever since I can remember, I have always loved to draw and create. At a very young age I discovered and understood that this was no ordinary gift but it was a gift from God. I wanted to use this gift because it gave me so much joy. I focused my goals and pursued a career in graphic design.
God was so good and opened doors when they seemed to be shut. Finally, I had the career I dreamed of. However, after some twenty years in the business I felt emptiness as if my path was not God’s plan.
While promoting the womens retreat for my church I designed the poster for the event. It was on that weekend after hearing the retreat “A Walk into the Holy of Holies” that my life changed forever. Both Corinne and I knew God had put us together.
Since I’ve joined Revealing Journey Ministries I have discovered a satisfaction, excitement, and passion in creating that I once had. But now this joy comes from daily communion with my Lord as I study His word, pray for His guidance and allow the Holy Spirit to work through this gift. I discovered the gift can only glorify God when it is completely and gladly handed back to Him.
I am honored to be chosen to serve the Lord as He has planned. And I pray that God will continue to use this ministry for His purpose–to bring all people to Himself.

A few years ago as retreat coordinator for our church I was given Corinne’s name as a possible speaker for our retreat the next year. I kindly thanked my woman’s ministry director who gave Corinne’s name to me, and quickly tucked it away as an “if I can’t find anyone else who speaks on a way more intriguing topic” option. The tabernacle…now really, how can an exciting weekend away for women be spent talking about an Old Testament topic like that! But as the Lord so graciously does, He waited for me to painstakingly search for another speaker, all the while nudging Corinne’s name back to my mind over and over again. I finally conceded! It only took one phone call with my now dear friend to realize there was far more to this wilderness tabernacle then what I had ever imagined!
Although I had been a believer for most of my life, it was at the “Holy of Holies” retreat that my life was transformed. I began to experience an intimacy with God that I had never known. My prayer life became more passionate and filled with anticipation and expectancy to watch how our Sovereign God was going to move – in His timing and with His amazing purposes in mind. I am ever mindful that my worship is to be a sweet aroma unto Him – in my marriage, in the raising of my daughters, in church, or visiting with a friend. And like the begging of my stomach for food every few hours, I long for my quiet time with the Lord – the Word of Almighty God has come to life and is truly “…living and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and morrow; it judges thoughts and attitudes of the heart.” Hebrews 4:12.
The layers and depth of the scriptures leave me in awe and amazement – discovering Jesus from Genesis to Revelation is thrilling! Realizing that the God of the Impossible calls us individually to do His work is humbling and exciting! I now know there is no greater joy then being a student of God’s word!
