The Dash on Our Tombstone and Our Short Term Missions Trip
Dec 13th, 2019
Our time here on earth is oh-so brief compared to an eternity with our Savior. What we do with it really does matter. Colleen likens it to a short-term mission trip. When we embark on a 2-week assignment in a foreign "land" things can get a little dicey. But then again it's only 2-weeks. We can compromise our ease, comfort, and pleasure on behalf of our mission. We need to see this life that God has ordained for each of us as the same. The dash on our…
Your Starting Place for Prayer - Graham Cooke
Nov 25th, 2019
Graham shares such encouraging insights into our prayer life. It doesn't need to be complicated but it IS integral to living in intimacy with Christ. The starting place is in the fact that we have an inheritance in Christ. Romans 8:17. God wants us to experience the ongoing value of being joint-heirs with Jesus as we walk through life.

The Rules of This World vs. The Kingdom Rules
Oct 19th, 2019
The world we live in operates by a different set of rules. Performance and people-pleasing top the list of attributes valued most by those establishing the "rules". When our identity gets hijacked by the values of this world it interferes with our ability to live our lives as God always intended. To accept our adoption as Child of God operating out of our true self - not the hijacked version. Finding safety in Him, Loving Him, and placing others above our own self…
The Tree of Brokenness Charcoal Drawing Timelapse
Oct 8th, 2019

Vlog #11 Surrender Our Remote Control
Sep 28th, 2019
We often say control is an illusion. Maybe not when it comes to the socks we wear each day or what we have for lunch, but with the big issues in life. Wouldn't it make sense to ask God what He thinks would be the most appropriate fork in the road to take? Click the link to watch Colleens Vlog.

Let The Lord Lead Each Day
Sep 18th, 2019
What does it mean to surrender all? As a new believer, we may have had a better idea but even that might look legalistic. True submission is giving up on our right to be right. To hold on loosely to everything that is not of God. It's all His anyway. Click the link below and watch a short video from a friend of our ministry - Pastor Joe Focht
