Hey Cohort 1, I made songs for everyone who commented or posted in the Skool group so far. Honestly, my heart was simple. First, I wanted to do something fun with the skills I’ve been learning. But more than that, I wanted to encourage your experience through music. There’s something powerful about hearing your own words, struggles, joy, questions, and faith journey turned into a song. My hope is that these help you feel seen, encouraged, and reminded that God is doing something personal in this process. Here are the songs I made: @Jennifer Flores Flores : https://suno.com/s/pXMJyt7Qo7ZiNT5J @Robert Flores : https://suno.com/s/nMhMmRkDAf4kZq2Y @Alecia Meissner : https://suno.com/s/P6J2uS5Z9Pkmc79X @Rikki Chelette : https://suno.com/s/eCeBbuzB1MOMPB4T @Jessa Lemke : https://suno.com/s/ASTa91q5HhZFpbRJ @June Wiegert : https://suno.com/s/1UxFAlErVprDae5n @Sarah Hirleman : https://suno.com/s/fOnuWzqmkDutL70g If I missed you, or if you have an experience you’d love me to make a song for, just send me a few details. Tell me what happened, what you’re processing, and what you’re hoping to feel or experience through the song (if you have a style, song or performer you'd love to hear it in thats helpful but i might counter too :P). Also if you want to remix the songs you can with the links above :) I’d be happy to make one for you.

Prompts to encourage review and reflection: - What memory that came to mind during the practice? - Where did Jesus revealed himself in your memory? - What did God shared with you during the question, “What do you want me to know?” - What was relieving or difficult about this practice for you?

Today, you were invited to smile as an act of movement to lift your face and therefore, have your heart do so as well. What was smiling like for you? Did you notice any kind of internal change? During the Posture Prayer Practice, what posture did you take? Did this feel natural, awkward, like settling in? What posture did Jesus take in response to yours? How did you react to him? Finally, what was Jesus' invitation for you to do? And how to do you feel about the invitation? And, as a reminder with this question, Jesus voice will always come from a place of love, life, and gentle goodness toward you. Yes, it may be convicting. It may be scary. If you're struggling to discern between Jesus' safe voice inviting you and a voice of lies, feel free to DM your experience if that's the case. I'd love to pray with you.

Planning Discussion! EDITED & UPDATED More details on what to expect for this gathering will be given but this is just for logistics!

Prayer Reference - Mark 4:35–41 Where did you find yourself in the story? What was your response, if any, to Jesus? What are you afraid of? This is not a natural thing to know off the top of your head. I know from the experience of sitting for an hour on the floor in tears, trying to answer questions my husband was asking me gently about my fears, that it took someone sitting with me patiently, asking questions and digging deeper to bring out the truth about my actual fear and the why behind it. Being on the other side of that truth-telling process around fear was so freeing and allowed truth to pour in. If you're realizing you need someone to help discern what’s coming up through these prayer practices, particularly with fear, and how to partner with God around those specific things, I’d be happy to sit with you. You can find the spiritual direction sessions sign up in the Classroom. The prompts from the questions are listed here. What stood out to you or was brought to mind that wasn’t on the list. Afraid you’re defective. Afraid you’re not loved. Afraid you’re not wanted. Afraid you’re worthless. Afraid of failure/I’m a failure. Afraid you’re incapable. Afraid you’ll never be enough. Afraid of being overwhelmed. Afraid of being alone. Afraid of being out of control. Afraid of losing someone or something. Afraid of being trapped. Afraid of being harmed. Afraid of conflict. Afraid of being isolated or set apart. Afraid you’ll never measure up. Afraid you’re too much or too little I also want to open up the conversation to fears you know are behind you. What can you say you are no longer afraid of because of God in your life? His voice, his presence, his power, his healing etc?
