Life gets busy. Try as we might to keep our focus on God, we can get tired, distracted and weary. We have need of endurance and encouragement to finish this race we are called to run, and to run it with confidence and strength. As Hebrews 10:36 says, “For you have need of endurance, so that when you have done the will of God, you may receive what was promised.”

And so, I want to invite you to Reawaken.

Every year, I look forward to our Summit conference. This year, it will be June 22-24 at the Christ Chapel campus in South Bend, IN. The theme is Reawaken, and we will focus on encountering God’s presence and His call on our lives even during seasons of distraction.

The Word tells us to wake those who are slumbering. All of us need to awaken, particularly now, and truly focus on what is significant to God—His children. Our selfish desires should be close to the bottom of the list; they weigh us down, hinder our progress and interfere with our ability to run swiftly!

Like every year, we have asked some great Bible teachers and missionaries to speak during this conference. Linda Turner, Jess Gibson, Carl-Gustaf Severin and I will be sharing the message throughout the weekend.

We will also recognize our new members of the Provident Network. During a luncheon on Saturday, will have the opportunity to hear more about how Feeding the Nations is bringing the abundance of the first world to the hungry and hurting around the world.

The event begins Friday, June 22 at 7:00 p.m. and wraps up with Sunday morning worship. Other than for the optional luncheon, there is no cost and no registration necessary. This is our gift to you. We hope you will join us.

I know you will be abundantly blessed! Please make every effort to attend Summit 2018: Reawaken! Now is the time!

The Summit is just a few days away and I cannot tell you how much I am looking forward to it. The weekend is going to be an amazing time to learn together, grow together and worship our Creator.

We have some exciting things planned for our time together and one thing I know I’m looking forward to is getting to hear from Jesse Duplantis as he shares a bit of his wisdom and insight with us. Jesse is a dynamic evangelist who has spent the last few decades preaching the Gospel and traveling throughout the world.

In preparation for the Summit, I wanted to share this video clip with you where Jesse talks about courage. “Courage makes you stand up and say, ‘I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me,’” Jesse said. “God understands the things you have to walk through in this life; think about that. And, he said, ‘I will give you courage and where you go, where you walk, I will walk.’” Take a look at this video, be encouraged and find courage that only God can provide.

Plan to join us at the Summit this Friday through Sunday. The whole family is invited to this free event. This is our gift to you, so join with us for a weekend of growing in your faith and understanding of God through inspiring teaching, laughter and worship. Click here for more details.

“Let the wise listen and add to their learning, and let the discerning get guidance….” Proverbs 1:5 (NIV)

One of my favorite times of the year is rapidly approaching. Each year, we have a weekend where we invite everyone to the Christ Chapel campus to learn and grow, to be deepened in their faith and encouraged in their walk. The Summit 2014 will be June 27-29 and you won’t want to miss it.

We have an exciting weekend planned, filled with teaching from Dr. Jesse Duplantis and Pastor Jesse Gibson. We will worship together in song with the talented Paul Wilbur. And, we will celebrate the licensing and ordination of Provident Network ministers and Christian workers.

But this isn’t a weekend just for adults. This is an event for the entire family. As the adults gather together, age-appropriate ministry for the kids will engage them and teach them how to be faith commanders by living five values found in the parables of Jesus. For the littlest ones, the nursery will be available, staffed with caring attendants.

This is an opportunity for the entire family to spend a weekend learning more about our great God. And, this is a gift to you. There is no cost to attend the Summit. This is an opportunity to spend three days outside the busyness of a typical weekend, and instead surrounded by the presence of God. Won’t you join us?

We have more details and information for you. Check them out here and plan to spend June 27-29 with us. Invite your friends and family. You will be glad you did.
