Dr. Roach is also the CEO and founder of the training firm called, “God’s Love Bank Enterprises.” In addition to being a training program, it is a research institute for developing new self-love in human beings of all ages and ethnic groups. According to Dr. Roach, there is an emergence of the new self-personality in America, and all over the globe.  He argues that the time has come for a higer order of love and appreciation  for  ourselves, called new self-love.  New  self-love emphasizes a greater awareness of love for ourselves as three fold spiritual beings and as merely human beings. Jesus came to give a life (Eternal Life), to give it to us more abundantly in our new self!  

This new self is our center, our best self, our supreme self, our original self, our resurrected self made new in Christ Jesus, our life-model!  Our new self is our light, our old self is our darkness! Dr. Roach asserts that the Good News about out old self in that it is a lie!  It is not the darkness of our old self that frightens us most, it is the light of our New Self that frightens us most.  Thus, we tend to avoid our new self and cling to our old self!  We sometimes shrink into the darkness of our old selves so that others around us will not feel insecure, but our shrinking into our old self does not help the world, in fact, it hurts the world.  It hurts the world and everybody around us.  But, the more we live in the freedom of your new self, our light, we give others around us the freedom and permission to do the same.  This is what Dr. Roach and God's Love Bank Enterprises is committed to help others do ---- that is to help people live in the light of their New Self on earth!
