Take a deep dive into the root of prayer in Scripture. How does God use our prayers to build things in the Spirit that impact the world?

Encounters:

- God, what are you building through my prayers?

Some seasons feel like staring at a garden bed waiting for sprouts. The truth behind that, however, is even in these seasons there is much to do and much to hope for.

Encounters:

-God, what does watering look like for me? - What is something You are growing, Lord, that I don't yet see?

A life of faith isn't about praying the right prayers, doing the right declarations, or prescriptive behaviors. So what does it mean to live a life of faith? What good messages from God are hard for you to really believe? Join me as we invite the Lord into these places.

Encounters:

- God, what messages am I having a hard time believing? - What would it look like for me to really live like the Kingdom of God is here?

In the time between our prayers and the fulfillment of God's answers for them, how do we encounter joy in the journey and lean into the transformation of the wait.

Encounters:

- Ask God to remind you of His promises or review old written down prophetic words - What fruit are You producing in the wait, God? - How can I embrace joy today?

God is always providing, but sometimes we're missing the new resources He's opening up because we're busy seeking fulfillment from the same place it came last season. Let's seek the Holy Spirit about what thinking patterns or habitual behaviors may need to change with our new season.

Encounters:

-In what ways am I still getting horses from Egypt? - What new sources are you opening up for me in this new season?

When the Bible says the Lord FIGHTS for us, that fighting doesn't mean the hand-to-hand combat we imagine. Learn how God designed us to fight, and find delight in the place of your pressure today.

Encounters:

-What battle do I need to stop fighting and realize that you already won? - What does it look like to eat instead of fight in my season? - What works have you made for me to enjoy with you that the enemy is trying to distract me from?

Encounters: We are plowing where our focus is fixed. How can we step into a greater joy even in the midst of hard seasons?

Encounters: Relationships are complicated enough...especially when we encounter people who don't agree with us.

What does Jesus say about the people who don't listen to us? The answers in scripture may surprise you.

Hopelessness doesn't always feel hopeless. Let me share a new infusion of hope from God's Word that will break through the lies of expecting bad things, expecting nothing, or fearing the future.

We tend to look for perfection in our circumstances, our responses, and our timelines. But what if the places of IMPERFECTION were the places we could be most poised for a move of God?

Encounters: 1.) Where are areas of perfectionism in my own thinking? 2.) Circumstances- How could this imperfect situation be setting the stage for a miracle? 3.) Responses- How could my imperfect response or the imperfect response of another set the stage for a new revelation of Your perfect love? 4.) Timeline- How could this imperfection in timing set the stage for a divine interruption?
