  • Finding Peace in Uncertain Times

    The worries, cares, and uncertainties we face in life can crowd out our peace. But what if we’ve misunderstood what God means by peace? Join me in encountering God and receiving his peace and comfort in this mini-retreat, filmed at sunset by the shores of Lake Josephine in Roseville, Minnesota. In doing so we’ll prayerfully engage with Isaiah 61:1–3. As you focus on the God of peace, he will fill you with his peace.

    Do feel free to stop the video and pause in prayer to receive from God.

  • Praying with a Painting: Let the Heavens Rejoice

    By Leo Boucher. Used with permission; all rights reserved.

    Take a mini-retreat and center yourself in God as you gaze at this painting by my dad, Leo Boucher. Ask God through the Holy Spirit to lead you in a few moments of prayer and wonder. You might want to ponder these lines from the Psalms:

    Let the heavens rejoice, let the earth be glad;
        let the sea resound, and all that is in it.
    Let the fields be jubilant, and everything in them;
        let all the trees of the forest sing for joy (Psalm 96:11–12, NIV).

    How is God leading you in prayer through the experience of pondering his word as aided by a painting?

  • Finding hope in crisis: Free ebook

    We live in unprecedented times. You may feel you have more space to engage with God or you might feel overwhelmed. Perhaps you feel both eager to meet with God and then flat-out tired and listless in the same day.

    If you have some time and energy, consider journeying with Abraham and Sarah over a two-week period through my free ebook.* These founders of our faith lived with uncertainty and change as they left their home and their family and community to follow God’s call. We can find hope in God through walking with them.

    Each day you are invited to consider part of their story out of Genesis, followed by some reflections and an interactive prayer exercise.

    I hope and pray God will meet you in amazing and comforting ways as we celebrate Easter and rejoice in God breaking the power of death and sin through his Son’s sacrifice on the cross and resurrection.

    God is with you in these hard and good times!
