Our Band doing One Republic “Marchin’ On”
There’s a bunch of threads and themes in James’ (the half bro of Jesus) book on OVERCOMING the trials of life. I love how he wraps it us telling us to PRAY and more specifically guiding us in praying OVERCOMING PRAYERS!
So of course we taught it and then practiced it. We had LOTS of people prayed for and several people report being healed.
We also launched our College Pastor, Sarah Merk-Benitez into the different way of church in her neighborhood that she feels God leading her to. One phrase that we’ve kicked around to describe this is “missional-monastic community”. Risk-taking is how Journey started so it’s no surprise that the Spirit stirs up risk-takers like Sarah in our church.
