In that letter, Paul challenges the thinking about cultural norms at the time. Let it inspire your thinking too!!

Hi our friend

Our last week was a week of teaching, preparation, encouragement and prayer. On Sunday I was speaking at our church about Loving your neighbor. It was encouraging to hear back from people how they felt encouraged and challenged. Then we started to prep more for the upcoming workshop on March 12^th. If you are free we would love for your to join! It will be held on zoom from 10am to 1pm pst. Click here to get to the registration page. During our week we were also able to encourage different people in our community which was a real blessing. But prayer still had a major role this week. Staying connected with the father and hearing his heart is so important especially in this season. We want to encourage you to first of all connect with Father God on a personal level and let him speak and encourage you. Then spend time in Prayer this week for all the things going on in the world on a bigger scale, but also for your neighborhood and neighbors!!

Also spend time to read the book of Philemon and let it inspire your thinking!

God bless you

I love the book of Esther and its implication that God can use one person to change the world for many. Its very inspiring to read and hear about her life and how she made such a difference! Be inspired by the video introduction into the book and of course then by reading it too!!

Hi our friend

San Francisco experiences such a beautiful month with sunshine and warmth. That opens the door for many to connect outside in the park or just walk around in the neighborhood. Just by doing that too, we were able to connect with different people that we haven’t seen for a while either. Our church had the monthly love the city event as well and that is always a wonderful way to pray together and also encourage people we meet while being outside. Jen was able to meet many new moms and nannies in the neighborhood parks and encourage them while Caleb got to play with their children and make his first friends. A win win. During the last week we also had quite a few meetings between a board we are part of and YWAM. Each were encouraging. Caleb is also doing well. He tries to say his first words while smiling and has lots of fun with a little ball friends from Germany send us. So we had a good week here! How was yours?

Also remember today and for the rest of your life that you like Esther are as well born for a time like this.

God bless you

The book of Nehemiah is right after the time of Ezra and he is also going back to rebuild but he rebuilds the city. But Nehemiah was in a different job position then Ezra, he was a governor, a political leader. Be inspired by the video introduction into the book and of course then by reading it too!!

Hi our friend

How was your week? We hope wonderful!!!

We are out for a vacation so no new update this week!

But as you saw on the top we still keep going on our journey through the bible! And as you saw in Nehemiah, God is using people in the position they are in. He wants to use you too!!

God bless you

The letter Paul wrote to Timothy are so full of good things to learn. I could only put a few of them into this video so be inspired by this short intro into these letters.
