a team of young people learning what it means to have gifts from God to use for His glory…and how powerful they are when we step back and let Him use them…

trading in a heart of stone...

Today we had a cool opportunity.
I, along with Erika Sanborn, Sarah Slegh, and Jordan Cross got up onstage during a wedding of a Liberian couple in our church,
and painted.
we painted this during a church service last year to end a sermon series called Morph...
the transformation from a broken heart to a new, healed heart that only God can make happen.

well this couple was really touched by these paintings and asked if it could be done during their wedding ceremony.
and after talking to the bride - she explained that it told their story.
they had gone through some hard situations not too long ago and their hearts were broken...
but God was healing them and putting them back together.

so it was an honor to do it again for their wedding.
and it was such a cool opportunity to be a part of their day!
bright colors and 13 sets of bridesmaids/groomsmen (yeah...crazy, but so fun to have so many loved ones up there for you), FUN music that you just had to dance to, so much laughter, so fun and SUCH a supportive, attentive audience.
it was so cool.  
such a blessing.

so like i talked about in the last post - visuals that resonate and stick with you.
Holy Spirit led art - inspired by Him.
it speaks in ways we might not expect it to.
so cool to be a part of it.

here is the finished product!
