Stepping Out of My Comfort Zone

The Spirit has recently given me the courage to step out of my comfort zone and what a blessing it has been!  Each time I visit a restaurant I now ask the waiter/waitress at the beginning of our meal if I can pray for them.  This morning I asked Marilynn if I could pray for…

The gift of music

As a member of the choir, we often are desensitized to the beauty of what the Spirit is singing through our voices due to the regiment of rehearsals. We do give thanks for the knowledge that our singing is a form of worship and a gift from God. But nothing can compare to the feeling…

Let’s All Join Hands!

Have you noticed that within our congregation, the Spirit is moving groups of people to join hands during the Lord’s Prayer. It started with a few folks who regularly sit next to each other, but what an opportunity to show the person who you don’t know sitting next to you, that we are the living…

The Spirit Works in Wonderful Ways!

After what I felt was a very moving meeting at church last week where we talked about God working through us in chance encounters with others, I went home and told my spouse that I feel like I truly understand what I’m supposed to do now as one of God’s Mission Visionaries here at Living…

A Spirit Tug

While walking our dogs on the trails in the Clemson Sandhills Research area, God guided us to a lady who was enjoying the nice weather with her four young children and the puppy they recently received for Christmas.  The spirit moved us to chat for a while with this lady and learned her husband is…

Blessing Bags

As we approached the stop light on Bush River Road, we saw a man with a cardboard sign that read, “God blesses you.  Please help me.”  The Spirit tugged me to reach into the backseat and grab one of the Blessing Bags from the church to give to him.  As he took the Blessing Bag the…

Kindness of a Stranger

After receiving incredible kindness from some total strangers this morning, I just want to say… kindness really does make an immense difference. I am astounded by the presence of God on this campus. ♥

The Power of Words

The Spirit nudged a friend to say something to me and it has made a huge impact on my life.  My friend asked, “What do you really have passion about in your life?”  That question alone changed the direction of my life and my vocation.  I thank God my friend had the courage to ask…

Tell God Out Loud

God led a young boy to share FAITH5 with a new friend and their parents one day.  And after only 6 days of doing it, this new household saw a huge impact on their nightly routine.  There was excitement surrounding bedtime and about telling God out loud what their highs and lows were.  The parents shared…

As seen on Facebook

Posted on Facebook: It occurred to me that we were our own blue dot Monday night (Burning of the Greens). I was thinking about all the traffic who were stopped on Hardscrabble waiting on the stoplight to change. They saw us singing and holding candles as we watched the trees burn. I am sure some…
