Vanessa spoke from Mark 9, emphasizing the urgency of the hour. Jesus directs His disciples to the humble faith of the demon-possessed boy's father, while they are distracted by their own ideas of the kingdom of God. Vanessa urged us to look to Jesus, believe in His words, and continue with confidence and obedience.
Read MoreHue spoke from Mark chapter 7, emphasizing the important message that we must prioritize our relationship with Jesus Christ over the various cultural and traditional norms that often distract us.

Read MoreHue’s message “Potential vs. Production” encouraged us to invite the Holy Spirit into our lives and daily living so that we could live the potential of the exceptional and “greater things” Jesus spoke about in John 14:14 rather than just produce good works. This is the only way we will truly glorify Jesus- if we are filled with the Holy Spirit!

Read MoreThank you to James and Jesi Lusk for sharing with us about their upcoming adventure as they say “Yes” to God. The process of saying “Yes” was made easier through the revelation of who God is. As we come to know who God is, we know who we were and who we are in Christ. This revelation of God made the saying “Yes” easier! Watch out NYC. This great city is about get wrecked even more, through the Lusks, by the ever advancing Kingdom of God!
Read MoreOne of the values at Restoration is to advance His Kingdom. We believe this “value” is also applicable to all Christians everywhere as it is the “commission” from our King to all followers of Christ. The most effective, and impactful, way is to be transparent to those around us at all times while constantly making Jesus the focus and center of our lives. This can, and should, be done through the various people we interact with on a regular basis.
Read MoreThe Kingdom of God, which we can only have through Jesus Christ, is worth far more than anything we have possessed or ever will. Let’s not lose sight of our eternal inheritance through keeping our focus on the King and His Kingdom.
Read MoreWhen we focus on the love and goodness of our magnificent God, it will be easier for us to rid ourselves of the “earthly nature”. Having an understanding/revelation of Who Jesus is and His sacrifice for us will give us the strength and courage to put on our “new self”. Thank you Jesus!
