Come Alive and Thrive in 2025! 2024 is Out The Door!
Hello, my friends,
As we begin 2025, I find myself reflecting on a simple but profound question: are we merely surviving, or are we truly thriving? Life has a way of throwing storms our way, and for many of us, the weight of past trauma can keep us stuck in survival mode. But I believe God is calling us to something greater—He’s calling us to thrive.
Facing the Past to Embrace the Future
In Isaiah 43:18-19, we’re reminded: “Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing!” Healing from trauma starts with facing it—acknowledging the hurt, the loss, the struggle—and then inviting God into those broken places. Only then can we step into the “new thing” He has prepared for us.
This is not easy work, but it’s necessary. Trauma doesn’t just disappear; it lingers in our hearts, minds, and even our bodies. That’s why I believe PTSD therapists are vital partners in our journey to wholeness. If you’ve ever felt stuck, I encourage you to seek the help you need. God often works through these professionals to bring healing and hope.
Honoring Our Heroes with Action
As a former attorney and advocate, I’ve walked alongside veterans, first responders, and their families. These men and women give so much of themselves for the safety and freedom of others, often carrying burdens the rest of us can’t imagine.
Let’s remember Galatians 6:2: “Carry each other’s burdens, and in this way, you will fulfill the law of Christ.” Saying “thank you for your service” is a good start, but empathy and action are even better. These heroes need more than our gratitude; they need our understanding and support as they navigate the challenges of post-service life.
Our Mission: From Surviving to Thriving
In 2024, we launched All-In Ministries Church, and I can tell you, God has been moving in amazing ways. Through our 24-7 Church Online, we’re able to provide spiritual support any time, anywhere. And with Eagle Advocates, we stand beside those who feel forgotten—offering a hand up and a way forward.
Friends, our mission is rooted in John 10:10, where Jesus said, “I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.” Full, abundant life doesn’t just happen—it’s something we choose, with God’s help.
If you feel like you’re just surviving, know this: you are not alone. Together, with God’s grace and the support of a loving community, we can step into the thriving life He has for us.
