God is Love and as such, He has a premium for loving, not just others, but loving ourselves. Love can look like many things and God is always stretching us to love as He loves. For so many who have experienced abuse, rejection, and abandonment and perhaps have fallen into sinful patterns that bring shame, this can feel impossible. But with God ALL things are possible! Join me as I share from my heart and personal experience how God heals so personally, relentlessly, masterfully, and beautifully.

As human beings we struggle. We have all sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. We usually fall in 2 ditches. We either feel the torment of guilt and condemnation or we slough it off is if it’s not a big deal. Neither one of these lead to freedom. And we were meant to be free!

God is Love. That means He is ALWAYS open to you. He never turns His face away from His kids even when we turn away from Him. He gave His eternal yes to you before the foundation of the world. We are simply not powerful enough to change His mind about us. Join me for this joyful message!

Why does evil happen when God is so good and powerful? Paul Young, author of “The Shack”, “Eve”, and multiple best selling books, addresses what happens when God creates a world in which the possibility (the inevitability) of ‘no’ to love will occur, and then submits to that creation and its choices, and to the ripples of those choices. Because of this all manner of deviation occurs. But Love inhabits and assumes (rather than separates) in order to heal within and from the inside. Join Paul and myself as we discuss these profound insights!

God is always engaging with His sons and daughters to provide, heal, empower and bless, but also to conform His treasured kids into His image. This last process can be rugged as He asks us to lay down ego-driven and destructive ways of being. But yielding to Him yields gorgeous dividends as we trust Him in the process.

When we understand the eternal relationship of Father, Son and Spirit, we have a starting point to understand God, ourselves and our relationships: with God, one another, and all creation. The exquisite oneness of Trinity, union with distinction, is essential, mysterious, and beautiful. It is summed up in the word “perichoresis”. Join Larry McKnight as we tackle exploring this glorious and mysterious truth!
