Daily: Dream

Practice of Choosing Joy

February 4, 2022 • Pastor Joshua Symonette

One of the disciplines that we need to have is this idea of choosing joy, particularly when things are hard. Joy is something that we need to choose more than we feel.

Destined to Win

February 3, 2022 • Pastor Steve Andres

I want you to know today that once you have trusted your life to Christ, the Bible says that God’s rightness and goodness and holiness are destined to win in your life.

Fighting For Your Dreams

February 2, 2022 • Pastor Caleb Crenshaw

Here's the truth, as we go after the dream that God has put on our hearts, things won't work out perfectly. In fact, we will likely have all kinds of opposition and issues as the enemy works to discourage and distract us from what God has placed on our hearts! But if this is a dream that God has given us, it's worth fighting for.

Lessons From Habakkuk

February 1, 2022 • Pastor Rick Sarmiento

The implications for you and I that have had dreams from God only to see them crushed by the weight of our failure is tremendous. When we come to those moments, like Habakkuk who was witnessing the destruction of Judah, we ought to run to God – changing our position and posture and listen for His voice. Then we record, remember, and relay His Word of hope to others, and then worship.

People of His Presence

January 31, 2022 • Pastor Kurtis Parks

Here’s what I know, when you’re constantly being filled, you’ll never run out of something to pour out. One thing I know is that in worship, is the place where the people of God encounter the presence of God, and that’s what I try to make the focus of my life.

What is God Saying?

January 28, 2022 • Michanda Myles

I’m going to read a few Scriptures to help us set the tone and intentions of what we need and desire. After I read the Scripture, take a beat and listen to what God is saying.

Past, Present, and Future

January 27, 2022 • Louise Goodwin

I’ll be reading from Isaiah 43:16-21 in The Passion Translation and pausing on occasion to allow you time to pray and listen.

A Living Sanctuary

January 26, 2022 • Hannah Woodley

As I lead us today in this guided prayer, let’s take a moment to quiet our souls as we prepare to commune with God.

Our God is Holy

January 25, 2022 • Kelly Gainer

As we continue in our series entitled Dream, I want to just take a moment and intimately guide us in prayer—a prayer that allows us to consecrate and sanctify ourselves from the inside out. A prayer that will allow us to be the revival, reformation, and renaissance first within us individually so that we can believe and posture ourselves for revival in the church, a reformation in the kingdom, and a renaissance in culture.

Revival: A Homecoming

January 24, 2022 • Pastor Heidi Scanlon • Luke 15

Today we’re going to pray through a Scripture that should always give us the confidence to want to come HOME.

Joining God in Creation

January 21, 2022 • Lawrence Chen • Deuteronomy 6

As image-bearers of God, we are called to reflect his likeness in every way, and while God's essence embodied in the Trinity is love, the action that flows out of that love is creation.

Create: Theology of Making

January 20, 2022 • Dave Cooley • Galatians 5:22

Once we remember that God freely has given us the Holy Spirit which holds that same capacity for the same radical love, we have that capacity to create, and to make beyond some industrial, production-centric purpose culture imposes on us or that we impose on ourselves. It allows us to create through a Spirit-filled, loving state.

Renaissance: A Cultural Bridge

January 19, 2022 • Charlene Fike

When I think of the Renaissance I think of that rebirth in culture and the huge bursts of creativity in art and architecture and grand marble statues, but I also think of great writers and artists who have stood the test of time.

Beauty Brings Creativity

January 18, 2022 • Pastor David Schmidgall • Ecclesiastes 3

God has made everything beautiful for its time. He has placed eternity within the human heart. Beauty is all around us—God’s goodness made manifest to the senses.

Creative Minority

January 17, 2022 • Dr. Mark Batterson • 2 Kings 19:30

I think the Apostle Paul, walking into the Areopagus in Athens and competing for the truth is a picture of what it means to be both a moral minority and a creative minority. We don’t curse the darkness. We light a candle. We criticize by creating. We write better books, make better music, produce better films, draft better legislation, start better businesses. How? With the help of the Holy Spirit.
