Sunday’s sermon from Pastor Nathan hit all the feels with the practical application we’ve desired from the pulpit! It felt like God whispering, “Yes. This is it. This is a hug from me, and the confirmation for you to keep going” The whole message echoed the heart behind Epic30… that what we speak, what we declare, what we intentionally choose with our words and our thoughts — literally shapes the atmosphere around us. It was this beautiful reminder that blessing is not passive. It’s not accidental. It’s not something we stumble into. It’s intentional. It’s chosen. It’s spoken. It’s released into the people we love. And listening to Pastor Nathan, it felt like one long, loving confirmation that what we’ve been doing — as a family, in our home, and in this movement — matters more than we even know. Because every time we pause, breathe, and speak life… every time we bless instead of react… every time we choose faith over frustration… we are aligning with heaven. We’re joining in with the same heart behind the blessing spoken over Israel: “Yevarechecha Adonai ve-yishmerecha…” May the Lord bless you and keep you. “Ya’er Adonai panav eleicha ve-yichunecha…” May His face shine upon you and be gracious to you. “Yissa Adonai panav eleicha va-yasem lecha shalom.” May He lift His face toward you and give you peace. We’re not just saying pretty words… We’re shaping identity. We’re creating peace. We’re building family culture on purpose. Epic30 isn’t about just journaling or habit-checking. It’s about becoming awake to the power you carry — and using it intentionally, lovingly, consistently. And I’m just grateful. Grateful that the Holy Spirit keeps confirming the path. Grateful for leaders like Pastor Nathan who bring clarity and courage. Grateful that what God whispers in private, He echoes publicly. In all reality, it’s been a long time since I’ve felt that kind of alignment in “Church”. #EpicYourLife #Alignment #Love #Shapers #intentionality #atmosphere #PracticalApplication #GoodWord

I'm a newlywed, enjoying married life and the adventures, some are sweet and some bittersweet. 😃 Eli and I moved to Virginia a month ago. The pace of life here has been refreshing after the full life of work and great connections with amazing friends. For this season I am enjoying the rest, the respite from all sorts of opportunities, good nonetheless. I do at times miss not living near my family and friends and dream of someday living closer if that's the path we choose in the future. I'm grateful for the wisdom and love in this community and look forward to tapping into the connection DNA teachings. I'm needing to level up in order to access it so if you'd kindly comment or like my post would be great! 😊
