a few years ago, I started taking a summer study break—a few weeks to rest, reset, and recreate. change of pace + change of place = change of perspective. no better place to do than God’s country—Colorado has become one of our happy places! #AMillionLittleMiracles

how do you run a marathon, get out of debt, start a business, write a book or get a promotion? TWO WAYS: GRADUALLY then SUDDENLY. we overestimate what we can accomplish in a year or two, but we underestimate what God can do in a decade or two or three! it’s all about long

fun field trip to the Culturehouse as our team begins to prayerstorm its future. some amazing art has hung on its walls and you can feel the worship in the walls dating back to 1886.

PRAYER is how we WRITE HISTORY before it happens! In 1996, I prayed a 4.7-mile circle around Capitol Hill. Nearly three decades later, we own seven properties on that prayer circle 🙏🏼⭕️ this 1886 church, now the Culture House, is the latest. why did we buy it? WHY NOT. we’re not
