Wild at Heart Class Coming October 8-10
Some seasons call for more than a quick reset. They call for an honest pause, a brave look inward, and space to remember what has been buried under pressure, noise, responsibility, and routine.

This class is an invitation to step away from the usual pace and enter a focused intensive built around reflection, healing, courage, and renewed purpose. If you have been feeling tired, restless, stuck, or ready for

We Created a Jesus Calling Web App: Carrying a Daily Word With Us
We have always loved Jesus Calling. Its daily readings have a way of meeting us exactly where we are, reminding us that we are loved, that we are never alone, and that we can trust Jesus with whatever we are carrying. Over the years, particular readings have spoken directly to our circumstances—a difficult decision, a season of uncertainty, a relationship needing grace, or a fear we couldn’t shake.

Neurofeedback: Helping the Brain Remember What It Was Created to Do
For much of modern history, scientists believed the adult brain was essentially fixed. The prevailing assumption was that once we reached adulthood, the structure and function of our brains were largely set.

The ancient wisdom of the Serenity Prayer offers a profoundly simple framework for healing: God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,the courage to change the things I can,and the wisdom to know the difference.

It calls us to humility, discernment, and surrender—three movements that mirror Jesus’ teaching in Gospel of Matthew when he sa

Why Christian Counseling?
Most people come to counseling because something has broken open in their lives. A marriage is strained. Anxiety is overwhelming. A hidden addiction comes to the surfact and wreaks havoc in your life. Sometimes it is not even a crisis—just a quiet realization that something inside is not right. Life is working on the outside, but the the mental gymnastics are active and peace seems scarce.

Bold Love by Dan Allendar - Book Review
Bold Love: When Love Refuses to Be “Nice” and Chooses to Be True Dan Allender and Tremper Longman’s Bold Love is not a book for people who want love to feel comfortable. It is a book for people who want love to be real. From the opening pages, the authors dismantle one of the most damaging assumptions in modern relationships: that love is synonymous with being nice. In their telling, niceness is often the enemy of love. Niceness is what embodies many Christians live by when
