the consecrated life 01: intro

God calls us to live in a distinct, peculiar way. Our whole lives are meant to be lived out in a way that brings worship to God, and this has been the purpose of humanity from the very beginning. Consecration is not just done in obedience, it’s actually the door that opens us up to God’s actual Presence. Join us for the rest of the year as we explore the concept of the consecrated life.

land to cultivate

You are a gardener. God has given us tiny allotments of land to conquer and cultivate. This land is found both inside our hearts, and outside in the world. Every follower of Jesus is called to care for these areas, bringing the kingdom of God to them in their own unique ways. Hear the encouragement from Joshua 18 as God calls us to care for the people and places he has put under our care.

the father’s faithfulness

The definition of God’s faithfulness has been diluted in the modern era. Due to chronic overuse, faithfulness has taken on a definition that centers more on us and our experiences rather than on Him and his consistency. God’s faithfulness is not about us at all—and that is really, really good news. Reintroduce yourself to our faithful Father and discover just how deep his faithfulness to us runs.

the father’s protection

The claim that God protects us is a reactant. For some, it drives them closer to him, yet for others, that claim pushes them away from God. If God is a protector, why do we still suffer? What does God really want to protect and shield us from? Discover the good news of God’s protection, and encounter his heart for you as his child.
