I believe we’re coming into a time of transition in the Body of Christ in America that is immense. I also believe that God is, in that transition, going to shake everything among us that needs to be shaken, so that what is built on the Foundation of Jesus Christ will remain. Let’s be certain that we’re building on the sure foundation of Jesus Christ and not some other foundation. Click here to read the June 2010 Update on Envision.

First of all join us in praising God for the lives he is changing through Envision Ministries, three trees coffeehouse and the Jesus Gathering! One of the things that encourages me the most is that many who have come to know the LORD are still walking with him and staying with us by attending our Sunday afternoon Jesus Gathering. Just a few days ago one of the first people we prayed with to receive Christ came in and affirmed that he was still walking with Jesus. We hadn’t seen him in many months.

It was this time last year that we were looking for a place to rent. We were gathering support from across the county. We were looking for equipment and furniture. We were dreaming up how it would look, who would come, and when we could open. Only one year ago things seemed so up in the air—and yet in God’s hands. Now we are looking back on the changed lives, people who have come to know Jesus for the first time. Please click here to read the July 2006 newsletter.
