Growing Wild

Learn to walk tall in the authority you have as a believer in Christ. Drawing from the Word, Sarah reminds us that we possess the power to tread on darkness and walk in the truth of God's word.

In sharing her daughter's victory over mental health challenges, Sarah illustrates how speaking God's truth over her child—"marked for peace"—led to remarkable healing and freedom. This personal testimony serves as a powerful example of walking in authority and aligning with God's plan.

Your words carry the power to change things. Be inspired to speak life giving words of light over areas of darkness. Because the same Spirit that hovered over the void and chaos at the time of creation has chosen to live and dwell and move through your surrendered life. You are a "living gateway"! Open your mouth and speak the words of Light that send darkness away.

God teaches his people how to live in this world but not be of this world. When we step up to the call to remain set-apart, we find ourselves living free. He told us it would be this way, but we, along with countless ancestors, decided to take that warning with a grain of salt.

His commandments lead to blessing, and not just for us but for a thousand generations that will come after us. Our gracious God is a forgiving redeemer, so be inspired to return to his ways, and be delivered from evil. Lord, deliver to us a Garden of life that grows wild with blessings for generations to come and an eternal life thereafter.

Sarah is joined by her husband Robert as they share how life has transformed for both of them since coming to know Jesus in the wild. From sleep and stress, to family and work management, things have changed since making one important decision: to follow Jesus.

The word tells us that testimony empowers us to overcome. May Robert's story encourage you to believe and trust that God has more for you, too.

“And blessed is the one who is not offended by me.”

Matthew 11:6

God works from the inside out. It is truly a wonder that He has chosen to dwell in us instead of any other place on earth. He has chosen to work through our hands instead of any other tool on earth. Let's Explore what it takes to cultivate a vibrant and healthy garden on the inside of you-- a place for God to dwell more fully. Because when we make room for him on the inside and invite him to teach us to be Holy because He is holy, we eventually see how those internal conditions influence life around us.

In this message, Sarah explores what hard seasons can bring about. Trusting God through suffering allows him to use the bad for good and "squeeze" from us something even greater than we ever thought possible.

Let not my pain be wasted, but also, don't let me grow complacent with my good fruit, or worse, live so afraid of losing what I have that I don't multiply what I've been given. May we be rooted, grounded and strengthened to grow wild with kingdom purpose all the days of our life.

If you've been in an endless search for solutions, be inspired to know you carry more options in your own hands as a Christian than you may realize. I hope this message inspires you and empowers you to grow to become a version of yourself that you have never been before.

We are made to lead TRULY "fruitful" lives. But what exactly does mean? What does that look like? How do we put our faith to work and our work to faith?

We've been learning how to turn fully to God to find more freedom and order in life (from the previous studies on "People Pleasing")-- so, now what do we "do" from here?

Now that we are connected to Truth, all filled up with Light, we are capable of leading TRULY "fruitful" lives. And what exactly does mean; what does that look like? How do we put our faith to work and our work to faith?

In this episode, Sarah and Natalie explore the answer to this question, by first establishing an important foundation: your WORTH. Jesus proved all our lives to be worthy of such significance. It is essential that we know and understand what he did for us on the cross and why in order to build a fruitful life and legacy.

Part two on getting free from PEOPLE PLEASING! Hallelujah, right? Cuz that's exhausting, and it lacks purpose. However, we ARE called to be pleasing to God, looking to him above all others- observing and honoring his commandments out of our LOVE for him. But let's get clear: pleasing God does not necessarily mean looking perfectly religious. In this bold conversation, Natalie and Sarah discuss how Jesus teaches us to live pleasing God as opposed to living to please people--discussing what that has been like in their lives; how turning to him above all others has actually led them to discover more passion for serving others. It's about more than duty alone.

Be sure to listen to part one first for context.

Be sure to listen to the first People Pleasing episode to get the most out of this message. This is part 2 because there was still more to say! We find freedom when we realize we are not made to please people. Hallelujah right? It's exhausting. However, we are called to be pleasing to God, looking to him above all others. But, pleasing God does not mean being perfectly religious. Natalie and Sarah discuss what it means to Please God...verses pleasing to people... and how turning to him above all others leads us to truly serve others out of a true desire-- with joy and excitement rather than expectation and duty.
