A New Year’s gift!

Friends, I am beginning 2013 at Passion Conference having my soul restored. I have been blessed to get to know another amazing woman this year in ministry- Shelley Giglio and she invited me to attend a few weeks ago.

I thinkĀ  it was really God giving me a gift that would come 2 weeks after my world fell apart. Because Passion isn’t the kind of place you can stay too angry with God. In fact He is blowing faith into me. And if you need faith blown into you right now you can join the Passion Live Stream here.

When Sarah had her strokes she was in the middle of a small group that was actually reading Anything. She was processing with me and others what it looked like to surrender to God. Never in a million years could she have imagined it may look like living in a body that doesn’t work or months to years of rehabilitation to learn to speak and walk again while the world watched and cheered and nurses prayed to receive Christ for the first time in the ICU halls.

So as you can imagine…. Zac and I are soberly looking at each other right now as we begin a new year full of new anythings, callings we absolutely never saw coming, callings that scare me and are costly… and as we watch our friend face some of the worst the devil can dish, we both would pray anything all over again.

Because nothing on this earth lasts except that which is from and for God.

We are re-upping. If you haven’t read the book- kindle is offering it today for $1.99. I pray you will join me in praying anything again or for the first time! Pass this along today to friends and family. I love what I get to do and really love when people who couldn’t otherwise afford it get to be a part- thank you Kindle for this gift!

Happy New Year friends! So much ahead!

Thankful for you.

I beyond excited for you to be at Passion! Passion, Louie & Shelley & the whole team have been some of the biggest influences in my walk. May God continue to heal you and breathe new faith into you while you’re there. :) Grateful for you! Lots of love for you too!

The body of Christ is an amazing thing and I’m honored to be praying with you for your friend. Thankful for your obedience and willing heart. God is, indeed, way better than we think He is! Starting Anything this month. Blessing to you as you seek wholeheartedly after Him!!

Thank you SO much for offering anything for 1.99. I stumbled on your blog and had heard of your stuck study but hadnt read it yet. I clicked on the link and bought anything and I just have to tell you what a blessing it has been in my life! I can’t put it down and have been recommending it to my friends and I’m not even finished with it yet. It voices so many of the same fears and hopes I have. It has been such a refreshing read to me in the midst of waiting for The Lord to show our family what doing “anything” for Him means. Thank you again!

I am so glad you got to attend Passion 2013. My husband and I have had the privilege of taking college groups to Passion 2010 and Passion 2011 and we can’t wait to receive our All Access pass to this years conference.

I am going to be co-leading your Study, “Stuck” this spring and I was excited to see that you attended U of A and DTS. I graduated from U of A and although I was unable to complete my DTS degree (I feel in love and got married.), my experience there was a wonderful one.

I am not the accomplished author like you, but I love to write and I love how God allows us to use words to share his love and message of grace and hope to others.

May God continue to bless your ministry.
