Changed

2 Corinthians 5:17
^" This means that anyone who belongs to Christ has become a new person. The old life is gone; a new life has begun!"

I cant stop thinking about this verse today. When I became a Christian at the age of 15 my life was completely changed. At the time I was just a little girl with serious abandonment issues. I remember I would come to church and my youth pastor would say this simple sentence to me "Dana, I am so glad you are here!" and that simple sentence would bring me to tears. Every week he would say the same thing and every week I would cry. During that first year of me becoming a Christian my life was completely changed. I didn't become a perfect Christian (I am still not) but my life was set on a completely different course. I fell in love with Jesus, I realized that Jesus loved me even though I was a completely broken person. I realized that he had a plan for my life and I wanted nothing else but to fulfill that plan. I was a changed person, not a perfect person, but changed.

As we are closer then ever to the launch of Catalyst Church I cant help but to remember that 15 year old girl who gave her life to Jesus at a tent revival meeting on a rainy summer night almost 15 years ago, and wonder about all the other 15 year old girls who are desperate for their own life changing encounter with God. Those are the people we want to reach. The broken, the hurting, the abandoned. We want to be the hands and feet of Jesus and show them that God sees them and that he loves them. We don't want to grow a church full of church attenders, we want to grow a church full of broken people that have a life changing encounter with the living God and will never be the same again.

"Diversity's Symphony"

Provider

Philippians 4:16
"My God will meet all your needs according to his glorious riches in Christ Jesus."

 Church planting cost money. And not a little bit of money, a lot of money. we need money for a building, for chairs, for sound equipment and video projectors and screens, for kids curriculum and kids equipment, and a million other little things. It gets expensive really fast.

I have to admit that at times it becomes overwhelming when I begin to think about all we need in comparison to all we have. But isn't that how God always seems to work? He seems to always asks us to do something beyond our own ability. And at the end of the day all we can do is have FAITH that He will provide.

These last couple of weeks I have been amazed at how God has already begun to provide for Catalyst Church. We haven't even begun to do our official fund raising yet and money has already began to pour in. First with a ten thousand dollar donation, and then a two thousand dollar donation.

But the donation that impacted me the most  happened a week and a half ago while we were in Panama. The church took up a 1800 dollar offering for the church plant. They told us they believed in us and wanted to be apart of what God was going to do in Portland Oregon.  As we stood in front of  500 Panamanians I was overwhelmed with emotion because I realized that this gift was from God. He used the generosity of the Panamanians but the gift was His.  It is a reminder that He is for us and that He has called us.

New Logo and New Promises

 

Hey guys! this is our new Logo for Catalyst church. We haven't decided on color yet but I kinda like the gray on black.  Let me know what you think.  

The old song "I have decided to follow Jesus" has been running through my mind all day. If you don't know what song I am talking about, here are the lyrics......

I have decided to follow Jesus

I have decided to follow Jesus

I have decided to follow Jesus

No turning back

No turning back

The lyrics are so simple yet so powerful. "I have decided to follow Jesus." I can remember singing this song as a 15 year old girl when I gave my life to God. It was my hearts prayer and I meant it with everything in me. But the truth is, I did turn back. Lots of times. That is why I love the scriptures in  Lamentations 3:22-23

Because of the LORD’s great love we are not consumed,
   for his compassions never fail.
 They are new every morning;
   great is your faithfulness. 

His compassion is new every morning. Some translations say His MERCIES are new every morning. I am so grateful for this truth because I need mercy and grace everyday!
So,  I will continue to promise my devotion to him, and try my hardest to live that promise. And even if I do turn back I know that he will never turn away from me, and I find my comfort in the truth that His Mercy and His Compassion is new everyday for me.

Isaiah 32:17

"The fruit of righteousness will be peace; the effect of righteousness will be quietness and confidence forever." -Isaiah 32:17 

I came across this scripture today in my daily reading and I just loved it. It reminds me of what Jesus says in Matthew 6:33-34 to "Seek first his kingdom and his righteousness and all these things will be added. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own."

It is an amazing reminder that when we seek God and His righteousness we can find peace and confidence knowing that no matter what our situation might be,  He is with us, and He will take care of us. Seek God today. Seek His righteousness; and find your confidence and peace in His promise. 

Radical

    I just read the most amazing book. It is called Radical (Taking your faith back from the American dream) by David Platt. In this book David Platt confronts the idea of the "American Dream" and challenges Christians to live for a greater purpose. To live a life of radical obedience and abandonment to Christ so we can make Jesus' name known in all of the world. It is a book that will make you feel uncomfortable and inspired all in the same sentence. And its a book I think every Christian should read.

    Our Oregon team is reading David Platts second book from the Radical series called Radical Together (unleashing the people of God for the purpose of God).  David starts the book off with an analogy that I just loved and thought I would share it with you.

"High atop the Andes Mountains, the rays of the sun strike ice, and a single drop of water forms. It begins to trace a hesitant course downward, gradually joining with other drops of water to become a steady stream. The stream gains speed and strength. Thousands of feet below and hundreds of miles later, what were once single drops have converged to become the mightiest river on the earth. The Amazon.
Using this imagery above, I tried to picture what happens when the truth of Christ penetrates our hearts, melts our assumptions, and propels us on a journey of abandonment to God. But you and I are not intended to plunge down the mountain of obedience alone. That's one of the reasons I love this imagery of the Amazon. The force of a single drop of water descending the Andes is minuscule. Similarly, as long as individual Christians journey alone-no matter how "radical" they are, their effect will be minimal. But as men and women who are surrendered to the person of Christ join together in churches that are committed to the purpose of Christ, then nothing can stop the spread of the gospel to the ends of the earth."

If you are looking for a great book to read I recommend both of these!

4th of July

I love the 4th of July. I love the fireworks. I love the hot dogs and watermelon. I love Otter pops and ice cream. But most of all I love the patriotism. I love how everyone wears red white and blue. I love that parents are teaching their children why we celebrate our independence day on the 4th and how not all nations have this privilege, that we are special. I love that people cry and stand with pride as they sing the National Anthem and God Bless America. Because God has.  God has absolutely blessed America. But God has not blessed America just so we can be blessed. God has blessed America so we can reach the world for Jesus. I want to challenge all of you today as we celebrate our nation and the God given independence we have been given. How are you using the blessings God has given you?  Don't waste them. Use them for His glory. Use them to change the world. Happy 4th of July!!!!

Jigsaw Puzzle

Hey everyone!
Last night we had a gathering with some of the team coming with us to Oregon. It was so great! I love to hear my husband talk about the vision for Catalyst Church. It inspires me and encourages my faith like nothing else.
I feel like we are putting together a Jigsaw Puzzle. We know how we want it to look in the end, and right now we are just trying to find the pieces and put them where they are suppose to be. Its a pretty big puzzle but we have faith that God's hand is leading us and we find our confidence in that.  
I wanted to encourage those of you who are still wondering if God is calling you to be apart of this church plant. Pray about it and ask God. Maybe he will send you to Portland or maybe he will have you serve faithfully where you’re at for years to come. Either way, we’re all called to be apart of this mission, and all of us have a role to play right now. All of us can pray for more people to meet Jesus. All of us can tell more people about Jesus. And all of us can give so that we can reach more people for Jesus.
Please continue to pray for us and for our team. We appreciate it more then you can ever know!

2nd Kings 5

Hi everyone! I know it has been a while since I've posted a blog entree, we have been super busy. But life is back in regular routine so I hope to start putting out a new post every week.
 The countdown has begun!! We officially have 11 months until we move to Portland! AHH! It has been so amazing to see how God's hand has already been moving and providing.

God spoke to me yesterday through a story in 2nd Kings 5. The story is about a great army commander and warrior named Naaman. Naaman had leprosy and needed a healing. Someone told him of a prophet named Elisha who God had given the ability to do miracles. So Naaman went to go see the prophet Elisha. When he arrives at Elisha's house Elisha tells Naaman in vs.10 "Go wash yourself seven times in the Jordan river and you will be healed." now this made Naaman angry and in vs. 11 he responds..."I thought he would surely come out to me and stand and call on the name of the Lord his God, wave his hand over the spot and cure me of my leprosy."
I think this story is so funny. How often do we do this!? We have an idea or expectation on how God should move in our lives and when he doesn't do it the way we thought he would it totally freaks us out! The story goes on and Naaman is obedient and washes himself in the river and he is healed of his leprosy.

Today you may be going through something and are having a hard time seeing God in the situation. Know that he may just be working in a different way then you anticipated. Stay obedient and you will see God come through.

Jesus is Building His Church

"85% of churches in America have plateaued or are in decline. This means that churches in America are in a free fall and everyday churches are closing their doors and those who remain open are hanging on by a thread. And in their place God is bringing up out of fresh soil new life giving, life changing, dynamic, Christ exalting churches. Not just more churches but better churches. And thousands of them." -James Macdonald

I read this quote today by Pastor James Macdonald and I loved it so much!  I feel like over time the church has lost its focus on what is really important (which is connecting people to a life changing relationship with Jesus) and instead has put so much of it's focus on upholding traditions and beliefs that have no biblical merit and have no importance when it comes to the truth of eternity. I believe with all my heart that God is raising up new churches that hate religion and are passionate about the message of Jesus.

I love the Church! I believe that the church when represented correctly is God's plan to reach this world. Jesus said He would build his church and I am so honored that I get to be apart of it.

Catalyst Church

The definition of Catalyst is...
An agent that provokes or speeds significant change or action.

 We decided on the name Catalyst Church for the church plant because we loved the idea of lives being changed because of one encounter with a living God who loves them. We know that if we can introduce the People of Oregon to a God who loves them, to a savior who gives salvation and hope, that lives will be changed and the kingdom of God will expand. 
Please continue to pray for us and for Catalyst Church. Your prayers and support are so appreciated and so needed. Thanks guys!

Jesus is building his church!

Orange in Atlanta

Hey everyone! I just got home from an amazing few days in Atlanta Georgia. Me and a few girls from our church were sent to the Orange Conference there. The Orange Conference is a family ministries conference put on by Reggie Joiner (former children's pastor at Northpointe church) The conference is based off of his book "Think Orange". 

The Idea of Think Orange is.....
How do we combine the Heart of the Family (red) and the light of the church (yellow) to influence our children.  Its an amazing concept and was so inspiring for me as I am trying to figure out how our Children's Ministry will look once we start Catalyst Church. 

Here is a paragraph from Think Orange that pretty much sums up the heart of the book and conference.....

"Imagine the difference it will make if every leader, every volunteer, every parent is on the same page, working toward the same end. what if we believed our mission was simply to incite wonder, provoke discovery, and to fuel passion in the heart of every child. Imagine him, and every other child in your ministry growing up with authentic faith that connects them to a better story for their life. That's what happens when you think ORANGE."


If you are anyway involved in Children's ministry I recommend this book and definitely recommend this conference.

Feeling Inadequate?

Feeling unworthy, inadequate, or insufficient?
Welcome to the club! I have this really annoying voice in my head that is constantly reminding me of all my limitations, but the worst part is, is it is all true! I am unworthy to be used by God and I am definitely inadequate! Because at the end of the day no matter how hard I try I still am a sinner just like everyone else.
Both Romans 3:10 and Psalms 14:3 make is very clear, they both say.....
"There is no one righteous, not even one" 

But there is good news! You see God has this funny little habit of using the unworthy, and insufficient. Lets take a look at scripture.

• Abraham, was a liar and a polygamist (Genesis 20:1-3; Genesis 16:1-4).
• Isaac, was a liar also and showed favoritism in his children (Genesis 26:6-9; Genesis 25:28).
• Jacob, was an extortionist and a swindler (Genesis 25:29-34; Genesis 27:1-27).
• Tamar, who is the mother of Perez, was a fornicator and a deceiver (Genesis 38:6-26).
• Rahab, the mother of Boaz, was a pagan prostitute (Joshua 2:1).
• Ruth, once worshipped false gods (Ruth 1:4).
• David, was a polygamist, adulterer, murderer, and poor father (1 Samuel 25:39-44; 1 Chronicles 14:3; 2 Samuel 11:1-3; 2 Samuel 11:14-17; 2 Samuel 13:1-39).
• Solomon, was a polygamist and was drawn away from God by his many pagan wives (1 Kings 11:4).
• Rehoboam, foolishly split the kingdom of Israel and led Judah to sin (1 Kings 12:1-24; 1 Kings 14:21-31).
• Abijah, walked in the sins of his father and was not devoted to God (1 Kings 15:1-3).
• Uzziah, disobeyed the worship regulations of God and was struck with leprosy (2 Chronicles 26:16-21).
• Ahaz, was very wicked, even leading Israel to sacrifice children (2 Chronicles 28:1-4).

What do all these people have in common? This is the Genealogy of Jesus! God chose this family for the savior of the world, the one who knew no sin, Jesus.

There are a thousand more stories in scripture that tell of how God used the broken and unworthy to do something amazing for the kingdom of God.  Because God is not worried about our inadequacies infact when we give God our weakness and inadequacies only then will he be glorified in our lives.

2 Corinthians 12:9-10
"But Jesus said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me. That is why, for Christ's sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong."

So.... yes, by myself I am extremely inadequate But with Jesus I am unstoppable! 

Praise The Builder Not The Hammer

    I was at the park Saturday with my girls. My youngest Madison (Maddie) is two and a half and fearless. At this particular park there is a really big slide that Maddie desperately wanted to slide down, but she realized quickly that she could not climb up the ladder by herself to get to the slide. So, she called out to me "Mom, help! I went over and helped her climb up the ladder so she could get to the slide. Once I helped her up I was expecting her to say something like this... "You are amazing Mom! I never could have done this without your help, thank you!" (okay, so maybe my expectations were a little high) But that is not what happened, instead she yelled out "I did it!!" And as I walked away laughing a thought popped in my head, "How often do we do that to God?"

    How often do we give God's credit to something or someone else? We may not even realize we do it. It may look something like this....You pray for God to keep your kids healthy and safe and he does. But instead of giving Him the praise we give the praise to vitamins and hand sanitizer.  (I am guilty)
  
    It would be like if Adam went out and built me an amazing new book shelf and he used a hammer. And when I came out to see the bookshelf he built all I could say is "WOW! that must have been one amazing Hammer! Thank you Hammer!" And I gave all the credit to the hammer he used and not to him, the one who built it. It is so easy to give credit to the tools God uses every day in our lives and completely forget to give God the praise for giving us those tools.
  
    My chalange to all of us today is to see God through the tools he uses everyday in our life.  Are your kids healthy because of medicine? Thank God for the Medicine. Are you financially taken care of because of your Job? Thank God for your Job. Did you wake up this morning feeling cruddy so you drank an amazing cup of coffee and instantly felt better? Thank God for creating coffee! =) whatever it may be, today remember to thank the One who gives us all good things.

Send us out send us out.

First Oregon Team Meeting

We had our first Oregon Launch Team meeting last night and It was amazing! So exciting to see this dream becoming a reality. Here are some things we talked about in the meeting.......

Church name is Catalyst Church. We will be planting in the south west Portland metro. We will be relocating to Portland May of next year and doing our official launch January 2013.

Some questions we addressed......

Why another church? 
We believe the local church is God's plan for reaching the world and as long as there are people who don't know Jesus there is need for a church.

Why Portland? 
Oregon has a desperate need. They have more atheists, more strip clubs, and more homeless youth per capita then any other state in America. These truths break our hearts and inspire us to respond.


Hosea 2:23 "I will establish my people in the land and make them prosper. I will show love to those who are called "unloved" and to those who were called "Not-My-People" I will say, "You are my people" and they will answer, "You are our God."


Our Mission...
Our Mission is to "Connect people to faith, hope, and Love"
1 Corinthians 13:13
"And now these three remain: Faith, Hope and Love. But the greatest of these is Love."


Our Strategy......
*Outreach (weekend services)
*Small Groups
*Growth Track
*Dream Teams (volunteers)

Colossians 1:28 "He is the one we proclaim (outreach) Admonishing (small groups) and Teaching Everyone (growth tracks) with all wisdom, so that we may present everyone Fully Mature (dream teams) in Christ.

Our Culture.....
We are a community of Faith, with a message of Hope, living a life of Love.


A community of faith....
Colossians 2: 6-7, Matthew 22:37-38

A message of hope....
Matthew 5:14-16, Mark 10:45

A life of love......
1 John 4:7-8, Ephesians 5:1-2

These are some of the things we talked about in our meeting. Please continue to pray for us that God would bring more people willing to give of their lives to be apart of the dream and vision God has placed in our hearts. We cant do this alone!

Sun Stand Still

    It always amazes me how God can speak to us in the most random ways. This week God has been speaking to me about prayer. It started with my 5 year old daughter Allie. I love that God is already using her and she doesn't even know it.  She came up to me the other day and in her sweetest voice asked "Mom, can I have a cookie?" And I said "no" because I was getting ready to make dinner. Then she asked again "please Mom just one cookie?" I looked at her and in that moment was overwhelmed with love for her and said "Okay, you can have one cookie." And then she did something extremely bold.  She looked at me with her sweetest face and asked with all the passion and desire she could convey " Mom, can I just have two cookies?"I looked at her and again was so full of love and said "okay my love, you can have two cookies."

    Now, I know what many of you are thinking, you are thinking I was played by my five year old daughter (okay, maybe I was) but in that very moment I said to her "yes love, you can have two cookies" The Holy Spirit spoke to me and said "Love, what do you want from me?" And I realized that God was listening. He wanted me to come to him like a child comes to their parent and ask him for something I desired.

Matthew 7:7-11 says "Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks the door will be opened. Which of you, if his son asks for bread, gives him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a snake? If you, then though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children how much more will your father in heaven give good gifts to those who ask him!"

    Then, as I was reading my Bible this week I came across a story in the Old Testament.  
Joshua 10:12-15. "On the day the Lord gave the Amorites over to Israel, Joshua said to the Lord in the presence of Israel: "Sun stand still over Gibeon, Moon, over the Valley of Aijalon!" So the Sun stood still, and the moon stopped, till the nation avenged itself on its enemies. As it is written in the book of Jashar, The sun stopped in the middle of the sky and delayed going down about a full day. There has never been a day like it before or since. A day when the Lord listened to a man. Surely the Lord was fighting for Isreal!" 

    I love this story!!! Can you imagine the bold faith Joshua  must have had to look at the sun and tell it to stop, and believe that God would do it! I want to be audacious in my prayers like Joshua was. I want to pray prayers that go beyond all areas of reason and reality! I want to pray and believe for mountain to be moved, for people to be healed, for lives to be transformed, for provision beyond what we can even imagine, Because we serve a God who tells the Sun to stand still and it does! I know God doesn't answer every prayer the way we want him to, but I still am going to pray the big bold prayers because maybe just maybe he will look down on me and overwhelmed with love say "yes, you can have two cookies."

Can't Do This Alone

Hey everyone! I thought I would post an update on how the church planting is coming along. Things are going great. Right now we are in team building mode. I have been amazed and humbled by the people who have already said they are willing to leave their jobs and sell their homes to be a part of planting the church. It strengthens my faith. Because the reality is we cant do it alone, we need people with a pioneer spirit who are willing to give their lives to something greater then themselves. Today as I was doing my Bible reading I came across some amazing scriptures. In 1 Corinthians 3 starting in verse 6 Paul says..... "I planted the seed, Apolos watered it, but God made it grow. So neither he who plants nor he who waters is anything, but only God who makes things grow. The man who plants and the man who waters have one purpose, and each will be rewarded according to his own labor. For we are God's fellow workers; you are God's field, God's building". 
 I love this scripture because Paul is realizing two very important truths. First, we cannot do this alone, we need other people. And second and most importantly we can not do this without God's hand. He is the only one who can make it grow. So, we will do our absolute best to prepare the soil and plant the seed but at the end of the day only God can make it grow,  I find such freedom in that fact.  Thank you everyone for your prayers and words of encouragement it means the world to us!

Hosea 2:23

 I came across this amazing scripture today and had to share it..........

Hosea 2:23
I will establish my people in the land and make them prosper. I will show love to those who were called “Unloved,” and to those who were called “Not-My-People” I will say, “You are my people,” and they will answer, “You are our God.”

Get ready Oregon! 

The Seed

Hey Everyone! Adam and I just got home from an amazing week in Birmingham Alabama.  In the last 5 days we have sat in 21 one hour long sessions (no joke) talking only about church planting, so as you can imagine my brain is FULL!  There are so many big things and little things that have to be done to make planting a church a reality. All of a sudden a year and a half does not seem like a lot of time! But its all good! I know that God is for us and if God is for us who can be against us, right!

    In one of the last sessions Layne Schranz (a pastor at church of the Highlands) repeated a quote that I thought was so powerful and thought I would share it with you all. "The power is not in the sower, the power is in the seed."I love this quote! It is an amazing reminder that God does not use us because we are qualified (no one is) but he uses us because of our willingness. The power is not with us as the sowers but the power is with the seed we plant, the power is with Jesus. And I am convinced that If we (the sowers) can introduce the people of Oregon to the power of Jesus (the seed) their lives will never be the same! Hold on tight people, this is going to be one exciting ride! =)

Alabama with the ARC

Hey Guys! Adam and I are headed to Birmingham Alabama Saturday morning for a 5 day training with an amazing organization called the ARC (association of related churches) The ARC works with church planters providing support, guidance and resources to launch and grow new churches. We are super excited to glean wisdom from successful church planters and also to spend time with other couples who are about to embark on the same adventure. Please Pray for us while we are there that God would inspire us and speak to us. I will post the link to the ARC's website if you want to check them out. Cant wait to tell you all about it when we get back! http://www.arcchurches.com/

Oregon Video

Our Story

     A few years ago Adam was at a pastoral conference with our senior pastor. The speaker at the conference said to the crowd "There are some of you here today that God is calling to plant a church and you don't even know it yet." And that was the beginning of our story.

    Adam came home from that conference and said to me "I think God is speaking to me about being a senior pastor someday." Now, this was a really big deal because Adam had always said "I will never be a senior pastor!" He had no desire to ever be one, even though I always knew in my heart that he would be.  So when he came home and told me how he was feeling I just smiled and thought to myself "well, duh." :o) Time passed and the dream was put on the shelf; still there but kinda forgotten about. Then, Panama happened.

    Our church here in New Mexico is part of an organization called Equip.  Adam and our Senior Pastor Jerome Wade go to Panama a couple times a year speaking to the pastors and leaders of Panama inspiring and equipping them for whatever God has called them to do. His first trip to Panama was about a year ago. While he was there training others how to be great pastors, he was reminded of the whisper from a couple of years before that said "someday he would be a senior pastor"and while in Panama, the whisper became a loud calling that he could not ignore. God was speaking.

    He came home from that trip to Panama and said to me "Dana, I know without a shadow of doubt that God is calling us to become Pastors." And so we began to pray, and pray, and pray.  During this time of seeking God and asking him what this all meant,  we were haunted by the idea of Oregon. We couldn't get away from it. It seemed like every new person we met was from Oregon, every license plate we drove past was from Oregon, every time we turned on the TV it was something about Oregon. We started to believe that this was where God was leading us. So we bought two plane tickets and took a trip to the most beautiful place on earth, Oregon.

    Since then, we have taken a couple more trips to Oregon and we are completely convinced that this is where God is leading us. Oregon has the least church goers per capita then any other state in America. The amount of homeless youth living in Oregon is unacceptable and heartbreaking, there is a spirit of hopelessness and depression that lingers over the state. We are determined to introduce the people of Oregon to a living God who loves them, who has a plan and purpose for their life, and his name is Jesus!

    Please pray for us. We realize that we are going to war with the powers of darkness that oppress the state of Oregon and we need people praying and fasting for us. We are convinced God is going to do amazing things in Oregon and that we will see many salvations, families restored, people healed and set free, and even more then we could ever imagine! We serve a great God who does great things! Stand with us and believe with us for the people of Oregon. We love you all!
