Our History
How It Began
In 2008, an answer to prayer came through an encounter with the Lord in a dream. Barry and Lori Byrne received a significant strategy on how to heal, strengthen, and transform marriages. This was the birth of Love After Marriage (LAM), which originally began at Bethel Church in Redding, California.
In 2010, Brendon Byrne (Barry and Lori's son) had a growing realization that the relationships in his life were “good,” but he knew there was more, that deeper levels of relationship existed. He wanted to learn how to get the “more” he was seeking, so he and his brother Caleb created and led a singles ministry home group. Additionally, singles began approaching the Byrnes about joining the LAM workshop after hearing testimonies from the workshop. However, LAM was specifically designed for couples, not singles. The Byrnes felt God saying, "Get to the singles before they are married." Brendon worked with Lori to bring together the appropriate elements of LAM with elements from his home-group to create the Single Life Workshop. This workshop has morphed and changed over time, while still seeing the same miracles, breakthroughs, and transformation since the beginning.
In 2014, the Byrnes founded Nothing Hidden Ministries to house Love After Marriage, Single Life Workshop, and Spirit Connection (the Byrnes’ inner-healing method). The Byrnes chose the name “Nothing Hidden Ministries”, as “nothing hidden”—living openly and vulnerably in truth and love – is the core value that lays a foundation for the entire ministry.
Now the Byrnes, their sons, and the NHM Ambassadors and Regional Coordinators facilitate numerous workshops all over the world, helping others gain new levels of tremendous breakthrough and freedom in their relationship with God, their relationships, and marriages!
