  1. We believe that God created Adam and Eve in His image, but when they were tempted and sinned in the garden, creation was alienated from God and cursed with sin. All of humanity is born under the curse of sin and as a result is deserving of divine judgement. It is only through the saving work of Jesus that we can be rescued from our rebellious state and have the wrath of God be satisfied. (Romans 5:12-20;  Ephesians 2:3)

2. We believe the Bible to be the inspired, the only infallible, authoritative Word of God. (2 Timothy 3:16-17)

 

3. We believe that there is one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. (Genesis 1;  John 1)

 

4. We believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His vicarious and atoning death through His shed blood, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and in His personal return in power and glory. (Colossians 2:9;  Hebrews 1:3;  Philippians 2:5-11)

 

5. We believe that Salvation is by grace and faith alone in the finished work of Jesus (Ephesians 2:8-9) and that Jesus is the Only Way to have a right relationship with God. (John 14:6)

 

6. We believe that for the salvation of lost and sinful people regeneration by the Holy Spirit is essential.(Ephesians 1:13-14;  Titus 3:5;  Ezekial 36:26;  2 Corinthians 5:17)

 

7. We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling, the Christian is enabled to live a godly life. (Romans 8;  Acts 1:8;  John 14-16)

 

8. We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost; they that are saved unto the resurrection of life and they that are lost unto the resurrection of eternal separation from God. (Romans 2:6-16;  John 11:25-26;  2 Thessalonians 1:9;  Hebrews 9:27)

 

9. We believe in the spiritual unity of believers in Christ. (1 Corinthians 12;  Colossians 3:1-4)

 

10. We believe in the purity of the marriage covenant between man and woman as created and designed by God according to His word, the bible. (Genesis 1:27-28;  1 Corinthians 7:9;  Matthew 19:5-6)

Worthy Women Transformation is a non-profit, Christ-centered 12-Month residential ministry for women desiring freedom from addiction through biblical discipleship.  

 

WWT is here to teach, guide, and encourage you to be the women God created you to be. You have been hurt, damaged, traumatized and abused. Today, you can be new in CHRIST and leave the old behind. It is a lot of work, but you are worth it. The mission of WWT: Romans 12:2 says: “Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.”  

Worthy Women was established because our founder Sonshine Troche, idolized drugs, violence, men, and money for 20 years. In 1993, Sonshine was on her way to prison for attempted murder. She last used drugs on July 4, 1997, and surrendered to Jesus on November 9, 1997. She began mentoring female addicts in 2006 and witnessed one too many dying from addiction (idolatry). Sonshine worked for 20 years as a drywall hanger, worked in a female juvenile program, owned Sonshine’s Drywall & Repairs Inc., volunteered with the Christian Motorcyclist Association Prison Ministry, volunteered in the La Porte Co. Jail for 13 years, and worked at the Westville Prison for three years.

Sonshine started the Worthy Women Recovery Home, Inc. in September of 2008 and opened in May of 2016. WWRH a clean, safe, and structured 5000 square foot home with 3 bedrooms for 7 residents, personal space for classes, growing, exercising, and learning to trust in God.  In November of 2023, WWRH became the Worthy Women Transformation Home (WWT), a biblical discipleship program to help you learn about God and HIS INCREDIBLE, SACRIFICIAL LOVE FOR YOU, in JESUS CHRIST!
