Imagine if you would…

Your father, leaves behind his former life in search of power.

He kills your mother, leaving you and your sister orphans.

He then kills your mentor and attempts to take your life as well.

today at encounter: a real life story of grace!

Date: 29 May, 2011  |  Posted By: Brian  |  Category: encounter  

We’re all moved by something.  I’m not talking about being moved emotionally. I’m talking about the big picture – the big decisions in life.  In those moments we have something we use to gauge our decisions.  Where will we live?  What career will we choose?  When & who will I marry?  How will I live my life?

Those are big decisions.  Our motivations and desires at that level are what really move us.

Today at encounter, we hear the story of a couple and their journey with Christ.  As they face some big decisions, we’ll hear what moves them.  Come be part of the experience we call encounter and find grace that meets you where you and can move you to where you’ve never been before!

today at encounter: how does life change happen in you?

Date: 22 May, 2011  |  Posted By: Brian  |  Category: encounter, Faith  

Fruit grows by the life that is inside the vine, tree, or plant.  It cannot be forced, threatened, shamed, or produced by any outside force.  Jesus said there was only one way that the fruit of life grows in us – by abiding or resting in Him.  From this humble place of accepting His forgiveness, favor, grace, love, and mercy we have produced in us the fruit of love, joy, peace, patience, and kindness for others.  We have fruit formed in us from what He first gives us!

Today, at encounter we celebrate and learn more about how to abide in Him and have His fruit produced in our lives.  The heart that is truly set free has the fruit of worship, serving, and giving from a place of grace.
