Becoming the Work of His Hands
We are NOT here to impress GOD, or others. We are NOT here to be dazzled by talent or techniques or tricks or personalities. We are NOT here to measure ourselves. We are NOT here to create, recreate, rewrite, or reinvent the TRUTH.
We are here to ECHO it. We are here to SURRENDER our gifts and our creativity to the CREATOR. We are here to share our HEARTS, our VISION, our LIVES and OUR creative callings.
We are here to GROW in KNOWLEDGE, GROW in WISDOM, GROW in PERSPECTIVE, and GROW in LOVE. WE ARE THE WORK OF HIS HANDS.
To echo the way, echo the truth, echo the life! To serve in the spirit of excellence with integrity and compassion for our community, our nation and our world.
Become a Purpose of Change!
Our HOPE is for you to experience the Unconditional Love of The Power Greater Than Self! The Power of All Grace, Goodness, and Greatness!
We have established a reputation for reaching the lost and broken hearted and to serve them with the utmost level of dignity and respect. We are the voice and the hand that encourages people to change their lives through Hope, Peace and most importantly, Love.
Everyday we encounter pressures to conform, to approach life-change as an outside-in acquisition of principles and social norms, rather than an inside-out process of becoming our true selves.
"It takes courage to live out of your true heart and follow the dreams you were meant to fulfill."
If you're looking for authentic change, who will treasure the real you and support you in your journey, we'd like to be that support. A new day is dawning... live not meant to conform to the world, but transform it!
Just For Today!
God, when we approach You in prayer, we come to what we don't comprehend. Forgive us for taking for granted the majesty of Your presence.
The Supernatural Power of God is the Power of His Holy Spirit manifested within, among and upon the natural.
Life in the Word
"Brothers and sisters, in view of all we have just shared about God's compassion, I encourage you to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, dedicated to God and pleasing to him. This kind of worship is appropriate for you."
— Romans 12:1 (GOD'S WORD Translation)
