Brian and Kristin discuss this powerful chapter of 1st Samuel and how David had a very important choice to make on whether he should take Saul's life.  The circumstances, including a miraculous act of God, pointed to the opportunity to rid himself of Saul's jealousy and unfounded aggression and anger, to once and for all, claim his spot as the next anointed king of Israel.  But David chose to honor Saul and seek reconciliation instead, to trust God with the timing of his promise.  Don't miss this challenging and encouraging discussion!

Brian and Kristin sit down to share about the experiences of the Whitmer House Church and Deborah House Church, and they dive into 1st Samuel 20.  This chapter is a deeply emotional and heavy drama of intrigue, deep friendship, and betrayal.  The friendship and loyalty of Jonathan and David is an interesting and tragic piece of the narrative around the life of David.

Kristin and Brian discuss the importance of rest, of receiving God's peace through our obedience, and in trusting God to be faithful through our brokenness and the chaos of the world around us.  They recorded this episode via video as Kristin was in Michigan visiting her parents.  Brian updates us on a recent gathering of several house church movements that happened at his house, and their most recent Night of Worship/Family Reunion.  This episode is loaded with lots of great take-aways and you will be greatly encouraged and challenged.

Brian and Kristin sit down for a conversation about 1st Samuel 16 as David is anointed the next king of Israel.  They also talk about the fun and fellowship they shared in the neighborhoods of Whitmer House Church and Deborah House Church this past weekend, as well as some ways God is moving in our midst as we "go" and "live" with His mission at the core of our lives.

Kristin and Brian are back to discuss the experience of starting a new house church including the struggles and the victories.  They encourage potential future house church leaders and/or new work starters to embrace the uncomfortable and unexpected as they step out into kingdom building efforts.  They also discuss 1st Samuel 10 as Saul is about to be anointed "king" of Israel.  We may scoff at Israel's need for this lesser king, but often do the same in our own lives as we build up many idols around us that end up taking the place of God for the joy, hope, and peace we seek.

Pastor Brian takes us through 1st Samuel 8-9 and challenges us to keep our eyes upon Jesus as our only King.  When we lose sight of Jesus as King of Kings in our lives, we end up worshipping and living for false kings that can never satisfy or protect us like we imagine.  

Kristin and Brian discuss this strange, yet interesting and surprisingly applicable passage of Scripture.  Kristin also gives a brief report on their planning meetings and the launch date for our new house church!  Grab a cup of coffee and sit in on the conversation that will encourage and bless you as they discuss the move of God in this passage and also in our lives as followers of Jesus.
