God's Time is On Time. And God's Time Is Now

April 7, 2024 The Bay Community Church, Thomas Cross Hoopes, Seeker of Truth

The Lord is restoring Hopes and Dreams, Promises and Visions that have not been fulfilled.

-God Is Outside of Time

-It’s easier to Steer a Moving Ship

-God Loves to show Himself Strong in our Weakness

Thomas has a passion for the things of God, mainly people. God has given him a heart to love people, strangers, friends, anybody. He loves to see people come into their identity as children of the living King. Like his father Bill Hoopes says "Thomas does not know a stranger". From a very early age Thomas would "work" the room going form person to person and speak passionately about God. Throughout his life God has used Thomas as a connector of both people and resources, from his time on the missions field, to connecting people from various churches and ministries in his hometown.

At 41, Thomas feels like he is just coming into some of the things God has for him and his Family.  Thomas and his wife Taira of nearly Ten years have Four beautiful children. Zoe 7, Willem 5, Aria 2 , and the latest edition Darla.

Eli grew up in the church and has known the Lord his whole life which led to  many life-changing encounters with Jesus along the way. He grew up in the backwoods of Michigan where he loved to make people laugh and bring peace and joy wherever he goes. Eli has a passionate desire to, not only worship the Lord through song and music, but usher in those around him into the presence of the King. 

In 2021 Eli joined a missionary school in Brooksville, Florida rather than complete his four year degree. As a missionary Eli has served as worship director,  youth leader, composer, and theatre performer. 

At 22 years old God has given Eli a heart to see people come into freedom through Jesus. This passion has led Eli on tours to perform in Mexico, Singapore, Thailand, Malaysia, and all over the United States. Consider sowing into Eli's life as he continues serving the Lord.

Psalm 139:23-24. Has literally been my life verse. I Recently preached on it, wrote about and talked about it on my podcast. The Lord showed me the importance of living that King David lifestyle, taking time to let the Lord search us and respond accordingly, nearly 20 years ago. 

But it was only in the last few years that he really helped break down what one of the key words in that scripture mean. 

Psalm 139:23-24 NASBS - Search me, O God, and know my heart;
Try me and know my anxious thoughts;
24 And see if there be any HURTFUL way in me,
And lead me in the everlasting way.

That word “Hurtful” means, 
pain, sorrow, idol. 

Jesus Loves to show us blind spots where we have things keeping us from receiving his Love. The same word used here is the same word in the verse

I have watched Antonio's journey with the Lord for nearly 20 years. A true evangelist with a shepherds heart. Antonio and Gloria love to see people come to the Father and receive the same Love and Restoration that they themselves received when they met Jesus.

In 2000, they walked into a Church. Gloria was struggling with illness in her body, and Antonio was high on drugs. They were both in a place where they very much needed a mighty touch from the Lord. Long story short, Gloria was miraculously healed, and Antonio was set free from years of drugs and a shattered upbringing. God had come in a mighty way and completely turned their lives around!Soon, they made the decision to give their entire lives to help further His Kingdom. They both attended and graduated from River University in Tampa, Florida and have been preaching the gospel and ministering since 2002. From church planting to small groups, prison ministries to street evangelism, travel and online, they have worked to spread the gospel and bring glory to Jesus Christ.In Spring of 2023, Senior Pastors Caleb and Kirsten Ring of the River Clermont sent them out to launch a second campus, the River Kissimmee.
