We are engineered to move. God gave us a direction to move in, gave us a reason why and told us how. All of us, regardless of our circumstances, have the ability and freedom to move towards others and add value to their lives. God is less concerned with our usefulness than He is with our value and is asking us to share this idea with others by moving in close.

The universe is wired to give. So are you. Scripture says there is “more happiness in giving than in receiving.” Generous people experience better health, increased confidence, less stress, a stronger sense of purpose, enhanced relationships, etc.

God, the most generous being in the universe, invites you to join in His mission of extravagant generosity. Why? He knows it will help you (and others) become more fully alive.

The Pharisees called Jesus “a friend of sinners” as an insult, but He took it as a compliment, because at the core of His mission is the goal of saving us by befriending us. He knows that in order to be “Fully Alive” we must be fully engaged with God and other human beings.

Our physical bodies require nutritional intake on a daily basis, and let's be honest, food is amazing. How much more so do our spiritual bodies need the nutrients of God’s word? Much more! But how does someone consume the Word of God and allow its nutrients to fuel their lives? Listen in and receive a practical tool on how someone can eat God’s Word and live more fully alive.

Sometimes it’s scary to let go. But you can only live fully alive if you’re willing to detox your life. For best results, you must think of detox as an act of generosity toward yourself. God, the most generous being in the universe, wants to lead you through a gentle detoxification process. His goal is to empower you to let go of the things that do not bring you joy. The best part? He never takes anything away without providing something better.

Pain shuts us down emotionally and steals our capacity for articulating our lives as a meaningful, coherent story of beauty and worth. Prayer opens us back up again and facilitates our healing. Like the inhalation of energizing oxygen into our lungs, prayer is the breath of the soul.
