Leaders That Last 6-Week Curriculum $59
Unsettled by Single Parent Director, Holly Crain
The weatherman told me all about the ominous storm coming our way. It was a little unsettling, so I tried to get my mind off it. At that moment, another massive clap of thunder hit, and the electricity went off. In the pitch dark, I jumped on the phone to get support. I was mid-sentence when I noticed someone run up to the back of the house and start pounding on the screen door. Read More

2023 Labor Day Singles and Leaders Retreat
Be Still and Focus on God by Jim Arringdale
Kris Swiatocho shared in Live at 5 how hard it can sometimes be to be still and focus on God. I know I often put many things ahead of knowing Jesus better and seeking to become more like Him. Is that true of you also? Read More
What Are You Saying?
Submitted by Matt Haviland, A Father's Walk
Today, January 22, 2023, marks the 50th anniversary of the Roe v Wade decision. For five decades our country has fought vehemently on both sides. And since the beginning, there has always been someone caught dead center between life and choice. This video is not meant to throw gas on that fire or make a political statement - rather, the producers of the video want to direct our focus on what a person at the heart of this issue might experience.

Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one. Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength. Deu 6:4-5
“Jesus was a single adult and so are over 50% of the adults in the U.S. today. This is a population segment that calls for special attention and ministry, but has often gone unnoticed by the church. Kris Swiatocho has dedicated her life to reaching single adults for Christ and building them into multiplying disciples of Christ. She is a great communicator and organizer of singles ministry. I commend her to any church or group who is seeking to reach the many singles in our culture today.”
—Dr. Steve Harris, Strategy Coordinator for the Baptist State Convention of North Carolina.

What Does It Mean When Rejection is Unclear?
Question: I am a 35 Christian man, and I think I have just been put into the 'friend-zoned' after asking for a second date. I recently went on a coffee date with a woman from my church. I texted her later and asked her out to dinner. Instead of saying yes, she invited me to a group lunch with her friends. This sounded like a gentle rejection, but she assured me that this would be fun and we could spend some time together. I was encouraged as I thought maybe she did want to date me. Read More

Help, I've Fallen and I Can't...
Everyone needs help from time to time. God designed us that way from the beginning when he created Eve to be a suitable helper for Adam. In Genesis 2:18, The Lord God said, “It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him.” But because of pride, control, and selfishness, we often don’t ask for help or offer it. Neither did Adam and Eve. Listen as Kris shares the value of asking and offering help. Watch more videos

Why Do Leaders Fail
• Ego: It’s all about them; major pride issues; can’t admit when they are wrong.
Proverbs 11:2 When pride comes, then comes disgrace, but with the humble is wisdom.
• No vision for the future: Maybe they have been leading so long that they have forgotten why they do it. They have lost their passion and vision of why they are in ministry. How do you lead others to do it if you don’t know why you are doing it? Read More

What God is Teaching Me by Claire Davies
"Even marriages that last sometimes aren't fulfilling" Enduring versus Enjoying - for this to happen, both parties need to demonstrate the correct love language and be active in their walk with the Lord, i.e., less of self and more of God - the fruits of the spirit. Read More
