We all have questions about Heaven, right? At some point, we all wonder about what comes after this life. Well in this study, I explore the subject of Heaven from a biblical perspective, separating what’s true about Heaven from what’s based on legend, media depictions, and hopeful guesses.
Fresh Grounded Faith Bloomington is a wrap! Bloomington and Normal, Illinois are right next to each other, so I was never quite sure which city I was in.
But what a joy it was to gather in Bloomington-Normal where, despite what the name suggests, nothing was ordinary at our Fresh Grounded Faith event! Held at Second Presbyterian Church, this was a weekend full of extraordinary moments, and I can’t wait to share some highlights with you…
Get ready! You are coming with me to a Fresh Grounded Faith event where we’re hanging out with Ann Voskamp, Tammy Trent, and Michael O’Brien.
We’re talking about the importance of community, tips for memorizing Scripture, and how to stay on fire for God. Oh, and there’s even a special—and hilarious—call out to all the single ladies.
Then we tackle some heavy topics like what to do if you feel anger toward God, how to deal with others who lack empathy for your struggle, and where to turn if you feel like you just can’t go on.
Do you ever beat yourself up when your feelings don’t line up with how you think you should feel? Perhaps you’ve said, “I shouldn’t feel this way” or “Why does this even bother me?”
Well, my friend, there’s a reason you feel the way you feel, and those inner tensions don’t have to result in guilt, shame, or being frustrated with yourself.
Today on the 4:13, Dr. Alison Cook is back to help you walk through the conflicting thoughts and emotions that leave you confused and feeling defeated. She’ll show you how to name, tame, and transform those unruly thoughts so you don’t have to be stuck in them anymore, but instead experience emotional freedom.
Our third conference of the Fall 2024 tour, Fresh Grounded Faith Springfield, is a wrap! And this one was super special because it was with my home girls at my home church.
One of Second Baptist Church’s values is showing open-hearted hospitality, and wow, they sure did! Partnering with several co-host churches in the area, they hosted over 1200 women from all over, and just to hear everyone together laughing and worshiping was like a preview of what we’ll experience in Heaven.
Hey, hey! I’ve got some news for you about next year…
One of my favorite things in the whole world is savoring an excellent cup of coffee with a few friends in the warm, fragrant setting of a good coffee shop. There’s just something about being surrounded by the laughter, the conversations, the music, and the scent of freshly roasted beans that settles me down and lifts me up.
That’s the flavor I’ve tried to capture at Fresh Grounded Faith conferences for over 15 years now.
