In Revelation 4 we see a picture of heaven and the worship around the throne of God. There are some intense displays of creativity and passion. One particular aspect I want to bring attention to is the example set by the Elders seated around the throne of God. It says they are sitting on thrones themselves, dressed in white with … Read More
Choices That Matter – Dustin Box
It’s 6:00 am, your alarm goes off, and your first thought is “another day of the same.” You get up, get yourself ready, perhaps you have kids you need to get ready and out the door to school. Maybe you need to walk the dog before you leave for work. Perhaps you have some bills that need to be … Read More
Words For 2016
Prophetic Words for 2016 Claire Dillamore January 3 Thoughts for 2016: Yesterday we went to a prayer meeting in a church in Novato, CA.

Forgiven to Forgive – Andrev Baltazar
Christmas is a time of giving for most families. Parents work hard to get extra money for the gifts that they expect to give their kids. Spouses struggle to think of a worthy gift for their loved one that also fits their budget, without sacrificing quality. Kids, well, they open the gifts given by the parents/adults. Christmas is really the … Read More
Just Wondering – Caleb Klinge
If there’s anything that causes wonder, it’s the birth of a newborn baby. I was there for the birth of both of my children and it’s the most amazing thing I’ve ever seen.

Alignment by John Bidaurreta
Have you ever hit a nasty pothole with your car by accident? You did not see it coming or did not have time to swerve around it, and you ended up hitting it dead on. The whole car catch’s air and, as result, there is a loud boom sound upon impact. This recently happened to my wife, Katia, while she was driving on the freeway. Thankfully she … Read More
You Will Be Like a Watered Garden – Caleb Klinge
When we first moved into our house here in Novato in 2003, we inherited at least 8 mature fruit trees. Our favorite trees are the two Golden Delicious apples trees in our front yard. Aside from annual pruning, we’ve never really done much to them. They’ve just been fruitful, year after year, producing lots of apples that are, well, delicious. … Read More
Bring On The Kids! – Dustin Box
As I reflect on the Kids and Family Worship Night this last Sunday night, I keep thinking about that moment when the band had finished practice and people were just connecting before the service started. The room was filled with the sound of children laughing, screaming, and playing. Usually it wouldn’t be so loud because they would be in their … Read More
