This post really refers to week 2, Colossians 1:15-23. It brought me back when I watched "How Great is our God" by Louie Giglo (from the passion tour). How amazing Jesus really is to create such a gigantic, amazing, mind blowing universe. 1:16 "for by him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorites; all things were created by him and for him . (17) He is before all things, and in him all things hold together ." As I ponder that, Jesus allows a thought to come into my heart, that I was created by him and for him too. That there was a reson, I have a purpose, it was for Him and He loves me. Jesus is my king, He cares for me personally and loves me, He made me and He holds me together. I have writen Laminin in my Bible next to that verse so every time I read it I'll remember those thoughts. Check out this video clip of Louie Giglio and you'll know exactly what I'm talking about.

Through the simple greeting in the 2nd verse of Colossians, Paul is reminding me of the importance of a positive perspective. He writes, "To the holy and faithful . . . ."
I'm sure he could have used different descriptors of the believers to whom he was writing. How about, "To the fickle and faint-hearted?" Or "To the wimpy and wayward?"

Paul chooses to see the people to whom he's writing through the lens of grace.

May the same be true of me.

Our group will be meeting for it'sfinal meeting using the Soul Revolution Material. Yes,its probably the last group to be meeting but Praise God,that despite the delays in meeting ,we are still going strong at the finish line! During the week after Thanksgiving,our group met to share a great and delicious Pot-Faith Dinner at the Shivka's(we prefer to call it Pot-FAITH not Pot LUCK, thanks, Bob)and will be meeting on Dec.14,one more time. We have all been blessed to make new friendships and many in the group took a step of faith to join such an experience for the first time,while others who have been in groups before agreed that they were so glad to be involved. The smaller "running partner" groups became an avenue for people to share and pray together for each others very private struggles. Being able to feel safe enough to share with each other is a testament to our groups commitment to each other. I know that we all grew and matured as Christians as a result of joining and attending this group.I am not sure what will happen in the New Year but I do know that God is in control of our hearts and minds in a greater way as a result of Soul Revolution!Kathy Brown

2009-11-27T23:40:17.650-05:00

as I sat reading don't worry God will clean up the mess, wow how true that is. I think it's wonderful when i hear stories about people that never had any hardships, drugs, alcohol abuse, sexual abuse, child abuse, domestic violence etc etc etc. yet when they hear about people like myself and other people is this great soul revolution book. Wow what a book. Unfortunately, I am not ridiculing people that do not understand this book. Yet, if they had good christian upbringing I can understand where they wouldn't understand this book.
As for myself I thank God everyday for the last thirty years, he has loved me like no one else, he saved my life, I never tell to many people this story unless they come to me hurt, and in pain, then I share my experience what is to have Jesus in my heart and center of my life. I started drinking when i was nine years old, no my parents had no idea, daddy has passed away and mom is still with us at 83. I also tried to commit suicide starting from the age of about ten, thirteen, seventeen i was taken to hospital by my dad, i know he was in shock, took overdose of drugs on purpose, I started cutting my self at age 19 and drinking, i am so thankful I didn't believe in doing drugs. I went with the same man for almost 14 years, and all that time I was a real mess. Being one of eleven, well second oldest, can't go into all of that , yet i moved out of my moms when i was in eleventh grade to move in with my girlfriends mom. My dad an mom were now divorced, these were very difficult years. I finally left the man I was with, yet not before we had a beautiful baby boy. The rrest of the story, well, I left my significant other. I raised my son alone, and by the time he was not quite two years old,, I was ready to commit suicide again. Jesus was always there I just didn't know it. He lifted me up this one cold wintry eve, and saved my life. I thought I am going to commit suicide. Someone cared enough just that day to put a bible on my doorstep my brother in law. What miracles we have in life that bible saved my life, and my son's life. I prayed till I knew jesus would change my life forever. I do praise him every day every min. that I can. I raised my son as a christian. Back then everyone in my life couldn't believe the changes in me I quit smoking, drinking. I can't even tell you how may prayers Jesus has ans. for me over these last thirty years. For the first time in my life at 31 I found the love and peace of Jesus. I pray I am a good example for anyone who crosses my path on a daily basis. God Bless you S.L. In that soup kitchen if you only reach one lost soul it will be worth your day, because that soul will tell others what they exp. at the soup kitchen. I am so grateful for my life everyday, and my wonderful son. The soul revolution has been exceeding the prayers I have prayed for . MY son was able to have a wonderful dinner and birthday cake with his dad for the first time in 32 yrs. He didn't meet his dad till he was 25. they have a great relationship, and his dad is always praising the Lord with us. Tell your story, it may save someone's life, drop off a bible to someone hurting. God bless you all. I love my Life.Thank You Jesus.

2009-11-27T08:44:32.608-05:00

The 60/60 was what I needed and did not know. It was what I thought I had-but found. It was growth - discipline my mind to be intentional when I thought it already was; discipline- my fear of never finishing a study for various reasons relating to other people, I faced the truth in myself-I learned to love the person and see importance of what they can share replaced what I thought I couldn't trust in others. Discipline-at work. The hardest place to be, hour by hour calling to my Lord to get me through the next hour I found a more relaxed mind and my focus turned to being a help to others who are stressed as well from work pressures. Discipline-at home-learning deeper appreciation and respect that shows in how I not only respond outside but how I feel inside. The Book-opened up corners of my being I didn't even know were to be seen-they were just the way I am, the things I thought I was too old to bother with became awakenings to spiritual possibilities and courage. So many things to say about what this very short time was for me I only know I have a new fear - of stopping it - so I am continuing it. I have a huge thank you to one person who encouraged me, believed in me and for the first time in my life I heard words I never heard the same before - "..you have contributed to our group". This one sentence has broken down the walls of fear being in groups gives me. Learning to focus on one person at a time and see them as so very important in God's eyes for this one moment in this one hour I walk with Him no matter where I am or who is there too. God is filling spiritual corners day by day, hour by hour in new ways that is so very exciting for this older Christian person coming alive again...THANK YOU !

2009-11-24T06:07:35.219-05:00

God has been faithful in my life during the 60/60 through helping me understand the importance of developing good spiritual discipline. At the same time, He answered a question about a difficult situation.

I've been VERY blessed to have been raised in a close knit extended family by Christian parents who have been excellent examples of people who practice good spiritual disciplines. They study God's word. They talk to God. They fellowship regularly with their church family. They use their gifts to build up the church both locally and around the world to reach out to the lost and those in need.

So, thank God, I have a great picture of what practicing spiritual discipline looks like. I also have a great picture of what a loving father is so it's not hard for me understand God's love. What CAN be hard to understand is why something "bad" would happen to someone who loves God so much?

For the past 25 years, my Dad has had a medical condition that we and he knew could lead to his death. A number of years ago, I asked him about having that knowledge and what he thought about it. He said, "I'm not afraid to die. What I'm afraid of is the possibility of being in pain or, worse, losing control of my mental capacity and becoming mean." He was afraid of "the life to come."

Four years ago, my Dad had a major cardiac arrest while in the hospital. They were able to revive him but for months we didn't know if he was going to make it or not. During that time, a lot of people from Pine Knolls were praying for him and one of them was Pastor Bill. One Sunday he asked me about Dad and I said, "Throughout my life, God has used my Dad to teach me. I don't know why this is happening to him but through it I know God will show me something about his plan."

My father did "recover" but now he's been left with all the symptoms of Alzheimer’s and, in the meantime, has developed a number of other physically debilitating conditions. So, it's safe to say that his physical body is being destroyed.

Here's the good news! While my Dad's body is weak, his many years of practicing spiritual discipline have left his spirit STRONG! Even though he can't remember what he had to eat a few minutes ago, he remembers how much God loves him and still talks to God with as much clarity as ever. Even though he can barely get out of bed by himself, he still enjoys the fellowship of his church family. And even though he has to wear a diaper while he does it, he still loves to tell others about God's love through song. And who helps him do all that.....my Mom...to whom he's gentle and kind.

God has shown me, through the 60/60 and my Dad and Mom, the importance of spiritual discipline.

1 Timothy 4:7-8 (New International Version)
7 Have nothing to do with godless myths and old wives' tales; rather, train yourself to be godly. 8 For physical training is of some value, but godliness has value for all things, holding promise for both the present life and the life to come.

So much to say! It began with the timer going off...

2009-11-23T22:59:25.559-05:00

So much to say! It began with the timer going off just as I was about to say something about someone. Then it was the conviction of a bad attitude directed at my husband. That was a shocker cause I really had no idea! Then it was the revelation of the reason for some of the fear and anxiety that has plagued me and some walking right into the fearful situations. God is so good! There was the growing closer to and learning and sharing things about people I have known for awhile but never on this level. True deeper bonding. And lastly but not the last, an analogy I believe God gave me to help with my forever struggle of how to have confidence and humility and then how to have them at the same time.
After everyone left on the last meeting I just had to tell Pete over and over I don't even have words for how blessed I feel. I didn't want it to end. And with the grace of God to help me, it won't. Mary Lou

2009-11-23T20:31:12.902-05:00

Well, during the beginning of the 60/60 experiment, God began to answer many of my prayers all at once. I was amazed and felt God really guiding and leading me. Before we had even started the Soul Revolution, I was really going through a rough time in my life and had little faith. I had suicidial thoughts, i was cutting myself, and was just a miserable and very depressed girl. Beginning the Soul Revolution, i began to feel God's prescence so much more and for the first time felt and knew he cared and really didn't want me to continue in being the person that i was or wanting me to really feel sad 24/7. So, on day 8 or 9 somewhere around there, My family addmitted me into a Mental Hospital. I stayed there for about two weeks and continued to check in with God every hour. Being in a new place without anyone i knew around, I became fully dependent on Jesus.(He has become my best friend). I got to know him better and how he works and hear his voice speaking to my heart. As the two weeks were almost up, so much changed inside me and who i was. God has also given me many people to talk to about My parents divorce, How i never see my dad anymore and he just isn't a part of my life, My mother being an alcoholic, and past sexual and physical abuse. As the experiment ends, I look back and so many things has changed these past 60 days. I am now healed inside and out of my depression, i am free from habitatual sins, I feel relief because i can now just get things out that has been trapped inside myself for so many years, I am a totally different person, I am now addicted to Jesus(I just can't get enough of him,or prayer, even worship, and his word), I have never been more intimate or in love with Jesus than now, and God has just blessed me so much and used me during these past 60 days. I can't thank him enough!

2009-11-23T10:46:26.766-05:00

I just wanted to share my little bit as well. I first came to Pine Knolls a week or two before the 60/60 experiment without a clue of how to have a relationship with God. I'd never been to church but the sermon given was about the emails that wouldn't go through because it was God's message that another ministry was not in his plans. It touched me because I'd been in a very rough relationship where things looked like they were turning around but something always prevented the change I needed. I realized that was my mailerdaemon response from God. I wasn't on the right path. I finally had the courage to leave despite the fear of raising my daughter on my own. From that day and throughout the 60/60 experiment every aspect of my life, without exception, that was not working out for me or I was afraid of facing on my own, suddenly worked out. Miraculously I made it and am prospering and I attribute every aspect to God. Thank you Pine Knolls for your inspiration and guidance along the path to finding God.

2009-11-23T09:05:13.751-05:00

This is nothing earth shattering, but it's my little bit. More than once during 60/60, I'd find myself in that late afternoon/early evening hour - kid is cranky, hungry, bored, I'm cranky, tired, trying to get dinner going, just generally getting more tense and cranky all the time. And then, the beeper went off. And in just a split second of looking up, all the tension melted out of me. Honestly I laughed at myself, being cranky about having a happy family and food to eat...but God is gracious and meets me even in those silly selfish places, pulls me back into balance.

2009-11-22T17:34:02.737-05:00

Last Thursday, I received a phone call from a Transplant Coordinator from Tufts University in Boston about a match for me and for John. (I will get a recipient for my kidney and John will have a donor give him a kidney; It's a pairing program.) Anyway, I have been waiting for this call for a long time. It had been a year since my first call, but something went awry on that call and the process was delayed. So I get this call and I'm told, "We have a match. We need you to come up to Boston for a complete workup and a catscan."

Well, I was estatic. Like I said, it has been a long wait for me, but an even longer one for my brother John. He had to wait two full years to be in remission from cancer before they would even consider putting him on the list. Well, he is on the list now and I am on the list to donate so that when I get a hit, he gets a hit and we both go "under" at the same time. Me to give to someone while a donor gives to John.

But I guess there are a lot more factors involved than I even know about. Thursday I was flying high because of that call. Friday comes and I get another call. The Coordinator tells me, "It fell through." Now I have ADD, so I'm thinking, well this has to be good news, right? 'Cause I'm thinking when something falls through, it's a good thing, but the tone of her voice told me it wasn't a good thing. So in the course of the night, from the time of the call on Thursday to the call on Friday, something had happened and this process will not go any further.

I was disheartened. My brother was encouraged by my reaction when I got the first call, I didn't think he would be encouraged with this reaction from the second one. But thinking about it, I have come to the realization through my wife that God has a plan in all of this. God has perhaps a specific person or persons in mind to move into position to maybe hear about Him or come to know Him. We don't see the big picture, but He does. That is encouraging because I know that this will happen and when it does, He is going to do a work. On a side note, I'd like to add that the recipient that was set up for me and the donor who was set up for John may also be disheartened about this falling through. We don't know who they are, but God does and we need to pray for them that God will strengthen them and lift them up.

On December 3 and 4 (Thursday and Friday), Nancy and I will still be heading up to Boston for that complete workup because my last one was a year ago. I need to be updated anyway. In this process, I know God is leading us to a place where He wants us to be. The second call is an indication to me that that place wasn't at this time.

The Soul Revolution is done, but even so, God is still closer to us than a beep away from a watch or an alarm or anything like that. I had felt like I failed, but Joe B Jr mentioned in church today that he was the kind of guy who was hard on himself. I hear you, Joe. I, too, am hard on myself, but today I feel that things are happening and He is at work, even if I can't see the results of that work right now. I have a problem with myself telling me that "I can't" or "It isn't going to come to pass" or I wind up almost believing certain lies from the devil that gives him a victory. I don't have to live in the negative. I can see through my brother and through my wife that God has already done a lot of marvelous works right in front of me that I am able to take a hold of. That I can see. Little Danny is a blessing in our lives! This morning, he was ready to go to "God's house" before any of us were ready, so his mom told him to play church while we were getting ready. I heard him say to his dad, "I wanna be Pastor Steve!" Thank God for Danny.

Thank God for all He has done and is doing in our lives every single day, with or without the beeps.

2009-11-21T07:25:23.327-05:00

Our small group has been meeting for about 3 years now, We share and discuss but this 606-60 has been so cool in how we have done things we probably would have never done ... we have shared that extra 10% and learned more about each other and ourseleves in the process; we have affirmed one another and were blessed with understanding how we are viewed by others and how God is using us; we have spent regular time with God - rather than an after thought or"when needed" but as an on-going daily dialouge. Indeed new habit have formed and the trick is not to drift off to old ways. Keep on beeping !

2009-11-19T20:32:09.066-05:00

As I imagine where I will be three years from now, my mind takes me back to some of the most important prayers I have ever prayed. Prayers for my loved ones to recieve Christ as the One and Only Almighty God, the One who created the universe and all that is in it. The One who gave Himself, to give to us, undeserved and unearned salvation. I imagine myself attending a worship service together with those loved ones as we celebrate His amazing grace, as we bring glory to God Almighty our One and Only Savior. God's plan to bring these people to this place will require me to bring Christ's Light into dark places. I know that the darkness can never overcome the Light, but the Light will overcome the darkness. I have been preparing myself for this task through deep study and historical research of the true meaning of God's Holy Word. This is something I have been working on for years, but now I realize, since Soul Revolution, that this is the time He wants me to move forward. He has even recently provided the opportunity for this to happen.
I am weak, and completely insignificant to have the knowledge and wisdom required to do this, so I am relying on the Holy Spirit to equipt me with whatever is neccesarry in order for me to do His work. I know that He will be with me through this journey, and together will bring His Light into the hearts of those who are confused and lost. Please, I am asking for prayer that the Holy Spirit will remain with me and completely guide me in this process. I can not do it alone. I need prayers from Christians who are living in the Light of Jesus, in order to be successful in this journey. Thank you. Cheryl Cross

2009-11-11T09:08:16.389-05:00

It is difficult at times, to see God as ultimately Holy and intimate at the same time. Years ago, I started looking at Him this way: I imagine a King sitting on His throne, busy with Kingdom business. Many important people want his time and attention. As his child (me) peers through the door, he sees and motions to come close. I imagine that child running to the King and sitting on His lap, totally content and loved. Everything and everyone else is unimportant when His child is near.
All God wants is a relationship with each of us. Not a relationship like a distant Grandparent or Uncle but a face-to-face relationship. The difficulty is when we don't want Him to see us that close! As I'm allowing Him to come closer, I've seen more of the things (sin) in my life that don't look very pretty next to His Holiness. It makes me want to get rid of them, something I could never do before. This time is different because it's Him doing the cleaning. All I have to do is obey when I hear His voice. That brings so much freedom! He takes care of the mess and I get to live freely in His love! Why wouldn't we want to live face-to-face with Jesus?

2009-11-08T18:37:43.341-05:00

I am not one to comment in a "blog," but today I felt like I needed to. I left church today and went to visit my sister in Albany. Just for a bit of background information, she was adopted into our family from Colombia. After two unplanned pregnancies and battling drug addictions for many years, she has found herself in Albany, at a small church that has been reaching out to her. I was amazed today, after hearing the sermon and being a part of the 60-60 experiment, to watch the body of Christ at work. This particular part of the "the body" held a baby shower for my sister, a girl they barely knew, while another part of His "body" was reaching out to her son who came to church with us this morning (he lives with his father here in South Glens Falls). I wanted today to thank God for his body that can reach a girl in Albany while at the same time caring for another child here close to home and reaching so many others around the world. Thank you to all those who have been willing to function as the Body of Christ.

2009-11-07T08:30:53.334-05:00

Speaking of things blowing us away, here were some answers from our teen group to the "What surprised you?" question in the "Interview with the Future You" experience this week.

- I already knew what I had to do [to get to where the Future Me was spiritually]. I didn't know it until the question was asked, but when it was, I realized I already knew the answer.
- I'm very materialistic.
- Seeing the Future Me makes me see the "flaws" in me really clearly.
- I have a hard time saying no to people and that puts God on the backburner.
- I realized how much more confident and less stressed I could be.
- When I see the Future Me, I am the opposite of who I am now.
- I like who I am as the Future Me more.

Some of the answers were so honest and profound in their simplicity, that I found myself jotting them down as we went around the circle. This exercise required everyone to share, and I appreciated the courage everyone showed in sharing honestly.

2009-11-06T09:45:46.570-05:00

I love this song! I feel like I slept away so much of my life by allowing myself to not think or feel. Last year, I started turning off the noise around me so I could hear His voice and practice His presence. I found I was allowing noise to lull me into not dealing with pain. I started to realize that what God wanted to give me was so much better than burying my pain! He will heal it and take it away.
When I started trusting Him again, He put His finger on some things that I needed to change. Sin that He wanted to deal with. The thing I found was that I didn't have to change myself. I just had to obey when I heard His voice and He gave me the power to overcome it! It's all Him!
Once of those things He wanted to change was my tongue. That's been a hard one but as I've been obedient, He's changed me. He's helped me to see that I had a judgemental and critical spirit. The more grace I use, the more grace I need to extend to others. How can I judge anyone else's actions when I have so much that God is working on in me? He's also taught me that He loves people and that, if I love Him, I need to love them. All of them. Not just the people I like, but the people who are difficult to be around. The cool thing is that He will give us that love! We don't have to do it ourselves! We just have to ask Him to give us HIs love and be open to what He wants us to do.
I am so excited about what God is doing in my life! Can't wait to see what He's going to do next!

It's true.....we all have character flaws. We are all imperfect people living in an imperfect world. I am so grateful that when the Father looks at me He doesn't see all my imperfections. He sees His perfect Son. Thank you Jesus for trading places with me at Your cross. When I look at other people I try really hard to look them with His eyes. It does a world of good for me and for them.

2009-10-31T18:57:23.728-04:00

Sometimes it seem "my heart" is so bust that it's not focusing - you know what I mean? It can get confused by the busyness. The cool thing about 60-60 is that pause which make you focus - even for a moment - on matters of the heart.

2009-10-31T15:17:40.722-04:00

Yeah, that's right. Day 37. This 60/60 is still going strong and even if I haven't had a chance to blog about my journey doesn't mean I'm no longer on that journey...Now there have been a lot of ups and downs on this journey, but I have come to discover something.

We're not alone.

Seriously, there are people out there that God created besides me! He wants to use us to encourage one another and do His will. Check this out...from Mark 2:1 - 5.

And again he entered into Capernaum after some days; and it was noised that he was in the house. And straightway many were gathered together, insomuch that there was no room to receive them, no, not so much as about the door: and he preached the word unto them. And they come unto him, bringing one sick of the palsy, which was borne of four. And when they could not come nigh unto him for the press, they uncovered the roof where he was: and when they had broken it up, they let down the bed wherein the sick of the palsy lay. When Jesus saw their faith, he said unto the sick of the palsy, Son, thy sins be forgiven thee.

I sent an email to one of my Running Partners. It went like this...

I was just finishing up reading the 10th chapter of the 60/60 and I
especially like the "Running Together" on 146. The Team Hoyt
story...or the Mat story. Either way, it made me do some thinking. I
think you mentioned it sometime ago, too, in one of the meetings how
that we all meet once a week and maybe it would be a good idea to get
together just to hang out. Hanging out would be a good thing, but I
know it's busy. As our adopted grand-child Danny tells us about our
home, "Man, this is a busy place, papa."

Busy wipes us out, doesn't it? Because at the end of the day, we
don't feel like doing anything, do we? I like to write, but I rarely
do. When the opportunity comes to get an idea and do something with
it, it is too busy to do so...And then the idea is gone. Now the
holidays are coming. People will be in and out of here. There is
still work to deal with. But I am so glad for the group night on
Thursdays. It is like a breath of fresh air.

Anyway, with that rabbit trail down, back to what I was saying. I
read this section in the book, and I was really impressed with the
four guys and the one guy on a mat and how they got their friend in to
see Jesus. I think that's pretty heavy. I've heard sermons on this,
but never heard it like that. That we need to see our friends and
sometimes take their mats and carry them to Jesus. And Jesus saw
their faith. He saw them! He saw what they did. That is just so
kewl, I wanted to share it with someone, and I thought of you. Maybe
you need it, maybe you don't. Maybe it could be as encouraging to you
as it was to me.

Jesus sees us and what we're doing. I think we all have mats and in
the groups, we're lifting each other up to God in ways I never knew
could be possible. This is an awesome experience and I am going to
paste and copy this to put it in my blog.

Keep up the faith, brother.

Yep, so there it is. I copied and pasted it and walla. I just feel like God is showing me that people are important to Him. Can you understand what I mean? I have always been a "do-it-yourself"er. I've got this belief that no one can do it, so I will. But that is just a lie of the devil. It is a lie to blind me from the truth. The truth is, I need other Christians to be an encouragement for me and I need to be an encouragement to others. We are not alone. God put us here together for a reason.

So keep on keeping on and Praise His name!

When I read Joan's blog, I was visibly moved in a most wonderful way. What she shared was truly a God-moment that defies logic.

It was as though the spirit of God just took complete control of my mind, heart, and soul. He alllowed me to open up and be transparent with the woman I love and regard every day as a gift from God.

Soul Revolution is absolutely affecting my relationhsip with God and with those whom I love deeply.

Thank you, Jesus, for the way you are moving in my life and all the lives of those who have chosen to connect with you daily.

In love,

David

I really like this message, I have also been studying scripture, learning God's ways and staying connected to what his will is for my life. I read Proverbs every day and each time I read a verse, it has a different meaning. God is near and he loves me that is what keeps me going, knowing he will never leave me.
