The Discipleship Oak

I see God’s work every time I leave the church parking lot. The oak tree by the entry way spreads its branches in the shape of the cross, reminding me where I’ve been and where I’m headed. That tree has been there for 125 or 150 years and it has been part of our Living…

Quiet Moment

Sadly, our daughter has been sick for a few days and she wasn’t getting better. In fact, she was probably getting worse. As I was sitting in my living room watching her cough over and over, wondering if it was time to go the Dr or not, and fretting about when I could find the…

Faith Formation

The Spirit moved one our LS members to do something last Sunday, and it was a blessing to witness, and I just wanted to share something so sweet and powerful with our community. Around 10:25am or so, the Spirit led a male LS member into our fellowship hall to join in with our young people…

Football Meal Ministry

I’ve had the privilege for two weeks to help with the JV Football meal ministry at Ridgeview High School. While doing yardwork the other day, I was thinking about this ministry and all that it means. It is most definitely a Blue Dot. We are planted in this place to show God’s pure love in…

Be Still and Know

God spoke to me on a Wednesday in my home. I had not been feeling well since the prior Monday and I couldn’t really explain what was going on inside my body. I just knew that I didn’t fell well. And in the moment right before I was about to call 911 for an ambulance,…

Neighbors

I met my neighbor by way of the Holy Spirit. We began to speak to one another as we passed each other a few times a week. As time went by, I noticed he was grocery shopping alone, walking from the store, pulling a cart behind. The Spirit showed me that I might be able…

Cracker Barrel

While having lunch at Cracker Barrel the other day, I noticed three young men, approximately in their 20’s, occasionally looking over at me. When I had finished with my meal, I asked the server for my bill. She told me that someone had paid for it. The Spirit led me to walk over to the…

Prayers

The Holy Spirit led us to share a prayer request through the Living Springs Enews recently. This request was for the grandson and his family of one of our LS Disciples. This family has gone to Philadelphia to seek help for their unborn child that is having severe issues. Through the blessing of the internet,…

In the Zone

I travel a great deal throughout the country and run across homeless people in my peripheral. I intentionally do not zone them out, but rather focus on the zone I am in! I am on a mission to go where I need to go in the quickest mode I can to accomplish what I set…

Disciples Helping Disciples

Please give thanks to God for those that feel a Spirit Tug to help others by being a part of DHD. Disciples Helping Disciples used their time and talents the Holy Spirit gave them to work in another disciples yard. The mulch and edging make the front of the home appealing to the eyes. Thank…
