Rediscovering Our Wonder!

A classic holiday movie favorite is, “It’s a Wonderful Life”.  The main character, George Bailey, had lost the "Wonder" in his life.  With the help of an angel named Clarence, George rediscovered just how wonderful of a life he truly had because of the impact and friendships he had.  There are 2 types of people in the world today: Those living inspired with wonder, and those without it. The recent pandemic is one in which people can lose their sense of destiny and wonder. Having an intimate relationship with God leads to a life inspired by purpose and filled with such wonder God wants every person to live with.  Join this podcast episode to discover how 3 Holiday Choices in our relationship with God and with friends, can lead us to rediscover our purpose and experience a life of wonder as God intended. (Mark 10:32-33; Mathew 6:22-23; Mark 9:15, 1 Thessalonians 3:2-3, 6, 9-10)

Dare to Be Different!

Each of us are destined to be Different, and what better opportunity to dare to make a difference, than during this Holiday Season! Here are 7 Ways God inspires and call us be Different!

3 Decisions to Have a Holiday of CHANGE!

It’s the season of Change! With the holiday’s right around the corner, many of us are having to change how we think, change our plans in the age of the coronavirus . Yet the season also brings with it the opportunity for personal change and spiritual growth! This episode is meant to guide each of us through our struggle and pursuit of inspiring change. By diving into Luke 19, we’ll learn 3 key decisions to make this season a Holiday of Change; • Choose to Climb, Rather than Cruise • Share Your Change Over Your Complaints • Don’t Wait, Initiate! By exercising the faith to take risks, to dare greatly, and be original,  God can bring about extraordinary change in our lives, leading us to discover possibilities beyond our limits. (Acts 3:19-2 CEB; Luke 19:1-10 ERV/NIrV)

Reimagining CHANGE

As autumn has begun, daylight savings recently ending,  and our nation undergoing a time of change with the recent presidential elections, the season of Change has arrived.  Bringing with it is the opportunity for radical, personal change -- one that's deeply significant and spiritually impacting.   God calls us to break free from past failed attempts at change and to Re-imagine change starting with the condition of our hearts rather than modifying our behaviors.  Honesty is the first step to defeating the 4 D's of Emotional Unbelief that obstruct the road to change.  By turning to God throughout this process, we can develop hearts characterized by the 3 R's (Responsive, Responsible, and Repentant) that lead to personal changes, powerfully inspiring others. (Proverbs 4:23 NIrV, Matthew 15: 8 NCV, John 5:1-9 TLB, Psalm 90:1 NLT)

Open Your Eyes

Do you have Vision?  One of the greatest needs in the world today is Vision.  It’s what compels us to overcome our own near-sightedness to rise above the noise around and within us. God is the greatest source of Vision. And he “Opens our Eyes” to restore our sense of vision, especially through spiritual relationships.  Join us as we talk about “Opening Our Eyes”, to see God’s possibilities and purposes, rather than being limited by our past, by our obstacles, or by our circumstances.  With spiritual Vision, we can build inspired lives that change the lives of others, and ultimately change the world!  (Mark 8:22-25 TPT)
