Discover Life: Wrapping Up June 2016 - Nobody Does That!

It seems like the months fly by up here ... and June was no different! Let's get to it!

The ministry and men of DISCOVER LIFE have benefited this month by four wonderful blessings.

Discover Life: Wrapping Up May 2016 - The Evidence Makes It Obvious

May of 2016 was a fast month up here on The Hill. I'll get right into it!

We welcomed the arrival of Bernie and said farewell to Jay. Jay has been growing steadily in his discipleship and moved forward just a few days ago. Bernie has been experiencing the good conflict of discovering who Christ is, what the Gospel is, and his identity in Christ made possible through the power of the Gospel! We have also witnessed continued growth in Joel and John as they continue in their discipleship journeys serving the men in ministry leadership. Stephen has continued to sharpen his leadership roles within both DISCOVER LIFE and Huntersfield Christian Training Center. Please pray for the men as they continue on their individual journeys. Please pray for their protection, but also for the intrusion of the Holy Spirit; that darkness would be confronted with light and that lies would be confronted with the truth.

Discover Life: Wrapping Up April 2016 - Root Well!

April showers bring what? Truthfully, the month has been a roller coaster here at DISCOVER LIFE. Peaks and valleys are a part of life but God promises us the peace that allows us to get caught away with neither and, through it all, hold onto the steadfastness of who He is through think and thin ... and this month brought a lot of each. Let's get to it.

With A Heavy Heart ... Announcing the Passing of a Hero

It is with a heavy heart that I say, "Thank you and well done" to one of our own, Mr Charlie Gockel. Mr Charlie ended his term here on earth and is now enjoying the presence of the Lord. He loved furiously and intrusively. His life impacted so many. His message was simple: Give up to Jesus. The legacy of his life cannot be calculated by any other than He whose presence Charlie is now enjoying. He will be missed. Please pray for his family. Please pray for his community. Please pray for the men at Discover Life whom he loved unconditionally. I will announce funeral plans once they are set.

Discover Life: Wrapping Up February 2016: Don't Drink From That!!!



I want to thank all of you who have been keeping up with us as we navigate through the mess of ministering among broken lives desperate for freedom. None of us, not one, has within ourselves the capacity to untangle the knots of the soul, let alone heal the wounds. It is only through the realization upon the revelation of the grace of God through Jesus Christ that any person experiences freedom through the sanctifying work of the Holy Spirit! We desperately need His guidance for everyone who comes up here ... and it is our hearts longing to see each one of them healed and restored to the freedom Jesus purchased! But it is never easy ... never.
