It is October 2024. At the beginning of the year, we felt the Lord guide the Lifespring Family towards Patient Endurance. Just over 10 months in, am I more patient? Can I endure more? I don’t know. I still feel weak, I still feel broken at times, and I still ask, “have I/we made any progress?” Yet, in God’s goodness, I felt God say, “that is exactly where I want you to be.” One of the challenges the Lord has been putting…

It was such a joy to have our elder, Joe Chong, speak to the Lifespring family. Joe has been and continues to be one of the greatest leaders I have ever served under. A man who doesn’t just tell you to seek the Lord but shows you how. Thank you, Joe, for loving God and loving this family. We are so blessed to have you as an elder of this church. As Joe was speaking, one of the many gems…

It seems like so long ago, but it was only 2 months since our Family Weekend. The many seeds planted over that weekend continue to germinate and challenge me to this day. As I got to know our speaker and connect with him, I felt a great love and care for him. He was a man that truly loves Jesus and genuinely cares for others. I listened to his teaching and testimonies and watched him interact and connect with the…

Praise does not put us back into God’s presence, it brings God’s presence to us. Praise is a magnet to the presence of God. Where there is praise, there you will find His presence. There were days in my walk with the Lord where I realized that the presence of God was powerful! I knew that when I was in the presence of the Lord my worries seemed smaller, my addictions seemed to disappear, my anxieties were no more. The…

I had the privilege of listening to Andrew’s message this week and I am convinced that God is doing something in our church family’s heart and assignment. Andrew shared how Proximity Changes Everything. He shared how he could see the changes in Wildfire and he shared how over the years, proximity changed him. Listening to Andrew brought tears to my eyes because I could fully relate to how people have so greatly impacted my own personal life. I have had…

During the Family Weekend, our speaker shared from John 4, where Jesus speaks to a Samaritan woman. She was a woman that Jesus, in all cultural and societal norms, should not have been speaking with or associating with. When Jesus asks the woman to get him water, he was not treating her as a slave. In fact, by putting himself in a position of need of her, Jesus was lowering himself and elevating this woman, giving her a place of…

We had another great privilege to hear from Samantha Tse, one of our Board of Directors and Deacon of Hope. Samantha has been part of the LifeSpring family for as long as I can remember and is truly a daughter and now a mother of the house. Thank you, Samantha, for your vulnerability. The presence of God was there, and I could sense a deep work that God was doing in you. As Samantha was speaking, I felt the Lord…

It was such an amazing time at the Family Weekend – so many gems, so many challenges, and yet so encouraged as we continue to walk this journey of faith together. Spending time with our speaker the entire week, there was a common thread that he kept mentioning in everything we did. He felt that no matter where he went and who he met, it always felt like family. Part of the Kingdom DNA God has put in the LifeSpring…

“Early on the first day of the week, while it was still dark, Mary Magdalene went to the tomb and saw that the stone had been removed from the entrance. 2 So she came running to Simon Peter and the other disciple, the one Jesus loved, and said, “They have taken the Lord out of the tomb, and we don’t know where they have put him!” 11 Now Mary stood outside the tomb crying. As she wept, she bent over to look into the tomb 12 and…

The LifeSpring family had another amazing privilege of having one of our Board of Directors speak on Sunday. Mae-Tuin has been serving the LifeSpring family faithfully for many years in the children’s ministry and now as the secretary of the Board of Directors. I, Gabe, have personally had the privilege of journeying with Mae-Tuin in Lifegroup and in Lead Well. What I have seen is that Mae-Tuin is a woman who genuinely loves God, a heart that seeks Him, and…

Search me, O God, and know my heart; test me and know my anxious thoughts. See if there is any offensive way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting. Psalm 139:23-24 As we continue to mature as a church family, I felt the Lord highlight that we need to be focused on who we are – who God has called us to be: Kingdom Family: Genuine Love for God & Genuine Care for Others Many of you have heard from others…
