Strength for the Journey 

"Strength for the Journey" is a four-point seminar that focuses on imparting God's strength for the days ahead. We live in a dark world--but for Christians this is our brightest day! It's time for us to arise shine and impact the world around us with the profound and audacious love of God.  

Meeting 1: Strength for the Journey; Using Your Gifts: This message is based upon John 4:31-35 (my food is to do the will of Him who sent me). We're at our best when we're being used by God!   

Meeting 2: Strength for the Journey; Intimacy with God: True strength comes from spending time in God's presence. Soaking up His love, telling Him your concerns, singing, praying, loving, listening... Strength comes as we behold our God and enjoy His presence. 

Meeting 3: Strength for the Journey; Relationships: Nothing will siphon off the anointing of God on your life quicker then manipulative, controlling, or destructive relationships. Meeting 3 is broken into two parts:

Part 1: Resisting the Spirit of Manipulation & Control

Part 2: Nurture: The Key to Strong Relationships

Meeting 4: Strength for the Journey; Take Courage!: This message is built on Judges 5:21b "March on, my soul; be strong." Courage will be a primary quality which defines an end-time believer in the days ahead. By using the Book of Joshua combined with the story of her healing from Lyme Disease, Paula illustrates that sometimes the greatest courage isn't required when you're in the midst of a trial, but just as you're coming out!

David and Goliath; The Making of a Warrior

The story of David and Goliath is full of direction and encouragement for fearful, struggling people. David, which means "beloved" VS Goliath, which means "soothsayer" is an epic battle meant to inspire believers to fight the good fight of faith! You can listen to this message HERE.

More Than a Conqueror

This seminar encourages believers to fight the good fight of faith and enter into the wonderful inheritance God has for them!

Meeting 1: Contend for Your Inheritance: This message is based upon the story of Gideon. Smack in the middle of fear, oppression, and famine God called Gideon to the frontlines and changed his name to “Mighty Warrior.”

Meeting 2: The River of Refreshment: This session discusses the importance of seeking God’s presence, and how this always leads to a breakthrough of freedom.

Meeting 3: Awake! Awake! Meeting 3 will encourage believers to make the choice to rouse themselves and to shake off the burdens of yesterday. Now is the time to wake up and stand upon the promises of God found in His word.

* This event can be planned as a weekend retreat or a one day seminar.

Four Hindrances to Receiving From God

This message begins by delving into the deeper meaning of the word "receive" as it pertains to Scripture. Then we move on to the four hindrances to healing:

• You have weak faith
• You have no works to attend your faith
• You have "squatters" on your property
• You have a baggage problem

Preparing Our Hearts for Christmas  

Christmas is the season to worship God for the gift of His Son, and a time to open our hearts and prepare for His coming. For most of us the weeks before Christmas are filled with bustle and preparation. In the natural we prepare:

• Our kitchens: Grocery shopping (all the extra time wandering the aisles to find items like “anise”)... baking (trying not to eat the baking)... and setting a lovely table.
• Our bodies: Hair, nails, special outfits, and most obnoxious of all, the vain attempt to lose a couple of pounds so we look our very best.
• Our homes: Cleaning, decorating, and putting up little light-up villages
• Our churches: The holiday potluck, caroling, and the always entertaining children's Christmas play 
• Shopping: Gifts for under the tree, gifts to send in the mail to relatives, gifts for the poor in Mexico... 

This message gives women practical ideas to help them “prepare their hearts” for Christmas in spite of the hustle and activity of the holiday season.

* Best at a Ladies Christmas banquet or Luncheon.

Take Your Place

While some might assume that a message about "taking your place" means stepping into your destiny, calling, or the ministry God has for you--this sermon actually discusses taking your place of intimacy at the table of the Lord (John 12:1-3 & Song of Songs 1:12). That is the "one place" from which all other ministry flows. You can listen to this message HERE.

Restoration Weekend!

Meeting 1: Emotional Healing: Life can be hard sometimes. Whether it’s abuse or neglect suffered in childhood—or a trauma of some kind suffered in adulthood—everyone is in need of emotional healing at some point in their lives. This session points the way to the ultimate healer, Christ Jesus himself. By sharing relevant Scriptures and her own stories of emotional healing, Paula encourages the women to reach out in expectation to Jehovah Rapha, the Lord their healer!   

Meeting 2: Physical Healing: God is good and He loves to heal His people! In this meeting Paula shares the testimony of how she was miraculous healed of Lyme disease ten years ago. While it’s true that God doesn’t always heal each person the same exact way—attendee’s are encouraged to put their trust firmly in Jehovah Rapha, expecting Him to move powerfully on their behalf.

Meeting 3: Spiritual Healing: Many women are held back from an intimate, life-giving relationship with God because of fear.

• Fear He won’t answer their prayers.
• Fear that God is mad at them and can’t love them because of their imperfections.
• Fear that Father God will turn out to fail them in the same ways that their earthly fathers may have.
• Fear that if they draw near to God He will demand of them what they cannot give.

So…. they hold God at arms length never entering into that sweet, tangible fellowship that they hear others talk about. These days more than ever, women are in need of spiritual healing and refreshment.

Meeting 4: Holding onto Confidence: This last message is based on Hebrews 10:34, and will teach women that obedience to God’s word will lead to confidence in God’s word. Meeting 4 will discuss the five ways to hold onto godly confidence. 

* Each session ends with a time of corporate and individual prayer.

Powerful Perseverance

The text for this message is: Hebrews 11:27 "By faith he (Moses) left Egypt, not fearing the king's anger; he persevered because he saw him who is invisible." To "persevere" means to  persist; maintain a purpose in spite of difficulty, obstacles, or discouragement; continue steadfastly. This sermon inspires listeners to PERSEVERE.... to not grow weary in well doing, but to persist until they see the harvest!

The Stones of Remembrance

This message recounts the story of the Israelites crossing the Jordan River at flood stage.  After the all people crossed over the Lord immediately directed them to set up a memorial of stones to commemorate this mighty act of God. He asks us to do the same in our own lives! Some people have actually set up a memorial to their past defeats---remembering, memorializing, and dwelling on these mistakes continually. But the Lord has something so much more for His children. He desires that we would build a memorial, so to speak, of His saving acts in our lives. This brings glory to God, joy unspeakable to us, and  deliverance into the lives of others!

Are You Chasing God?

Are you chasing after God? Is your relationship with Him a white-hot romance or a lukewarm acquaintance? We see many powerful examples in Scripture of those who pursued God tenaciously: 

• Moses climbed the mountain to investigate the burning bush
• Blind Bartimaecus threw off his cloak and ran to Jesus
• The woman with the issue of blood pushed and pressed her way through a massive crowd
• The two disciples walking on the road to Emmaus urged Jesus to stay with them for the night
• King David, wearing a linen ephod, danced before the Lord with all his might

 Climbing; throwing off the old; pushing; pressing; urging; dancing... All acts of desperate, hungry people seeking God!
