Our Story
Jars is from the 2 biblical stories and references
The first is the one of Jesus turning water into wine. The repository is known as Jars of Clay. The second is a reference where the writer was telling his audience about the treasure hidden inside earthen vessels or Jars of Clay.
The Jars concept is that humans are repositories of greatness. We simply help you discover it.

“Jars helped me “put a name” to my own trauma, recognize my knee-jerk reactions and the failed coping mechanisms I had deployed, and also pinpoint fortunate circumstances that kept me from “tipping over the edge”. It was scary and therapeutic all at once: I felt seen, understood, and validated!”
