Ryan and Sara Hall Overcoming Fear and Not Holding Offense

Loads of fun having Sara and Ryan Hall back in Mammoth for a visit! And it was amazing to get to see their growing family (4 girls!!!). Thanks for sharing your hearts in church and encouraging us: 

Sara: "The greatest killer to trusting God is letting Offense creep in.... when things don't turn out how [we] expect them to. Or when the season you are in--isn't what you thought it would look like." 
Ryan: "We need to overcome fears in our life. Jesus died on the cross to set us free from fear!"

We appreciate you guys tons!

Renewing your Mind

Dave shared on renewing your mind 2 weeks back, then last week I recommended 3 ways to get started renewing our minds:

1. Scripture. Reading Psalm 84 this week to transform + refresh our mind

2. Worship. Listening to worship and being renewed by passion + truth. Endless Ocean by Jonathan David Helser is free on youtube and you can listen/watch it as many times as you need to!

3. Arts.Brian Doerksen + friends wrote + recorded a play about one person's journey to discovering the love of the Father. The play is called Father's House, and the soundtrack is rich in truth about our discovery of how much God's heart if 'for' us! Download a copy at Brian's webstore. It will change your day/week....

Cody and Cherise Motorbiking Nepal

Here's a recent update from Cherise + Cody in Nepal:

We are currently in Tatopani on our way up to Upper Mustang. It will be a 10 day trip to film the old kingdom of Mustang for their Tij festival. There are 5 'foreigners' on 3 bikes (Royal Enfields) and then we have a support jeep with 2 translator/guides and the driver. They are part of Karma Flights which is a small grassroots NGO based out of Pokhara Nepal. We worked with them extensively last year doing aid relief work after the earthquake. We are one day in and have had 1 flat tire, one broken foot peg and a broken headlight...so far so good! Prayers: safety, bikes wouldn't break down, show our love to these beautiful people, teammates to see our love for God - they come from all sorts of 'walks' and we've had some pretty great God talks already:) We will try to update as much as we can! Send our love to our Lighthouse family!!

Cody Tuttle in Nepal

Here's an update from Cody (and Cherise) Tuttle from Nepal, where they were in the process of photographing and filming a crew who were climbing Annapurna (the 10th highest peak in the world at over 8,000 metres (26,000 ft)) when a massive earthquake hit Nepal: 

"Our team has decided to leave the mountain behind and refocus our primary objective on doing what we can to help the Nepali people who have been devastated by last weeks earthquake. We are joining up with highly qualified N.G.O’s that will direct our team and make sure that our resources will be used efficiently and effectively. Please follow the link below If you would like to help join us in these efforts.

The Heart for Global Lighthouse

This past Sunday evening at Mammoth Lighthouse, Ryan and Lauren Harris shared an amazing groundwork for what God is doing in the earth, what he desires to do thru our global family, and testimonies of his love for the nations.

At one point Ryan looked up and pointed to the lights hanging from the ceiling in the Mammoth Lighthouse, and said that these lights represent what God is wanting to do all over the globe. Honestly---I was rocked, I have never dreamed quite that large. It was so encouraging and stretching at the same time.

They ended with a challenge for each of us to ask God what each of our roles might be---to participate in what God is doing globally! So let's pray and ask God what/how he wants to use us:)
