Akiane

2008-02-29T19:18:00.001-08:00

This week is the prophetic art conference here at Bethel and Akiane is one of the speakers. Akiane is thirteen years old and is an amazing artist. Akiane has been painting since she was four years after having had a vision of God and heaven. Through this vision she got saved but her parents were still unsaved. Akiane began to have more encounters with God and she told her parents about them and they too got saved. Akiane's paintings come from what she sees when God encounters her and takes her on adventures. Akiane said she is up every morning at four and paints for five or six hours. Akiane also writes poetry. She is an amazing young girl with a heart after God. She said that she does what she does because she wants people to know God and His love. Kris Vallotton and Tracy Cooper interviewing Akiane!
This is one of Akiane's paintings! She said this one is her favorite one!
Its called "A Mother's Love"

Heidi Baker

2008-02-23T20:06:00.000-08:00

Heidi Baker came to speak in class on Tuesday! Heidi and her husband Rolland are missionaries to Mozambique. They are the directors of IRIS Ministries a mission to orphans and abandoned children. Heidi is a carrier of the love of God and His presence is intense when she walks in the room. I was totally captivated by His love! My favorite testimony she gave was when they were handing out Christmas gifts to the kids in Mozambique and she asked these girls what they wanted and they asked for beads. Now, the lady passing out the gifts asked Heidi "What are you doing we only have stuffed animals in the bag." Heidi replied "I think God would ask them what they want because He cares about our hearts desires" When the lady turned back to the bag the bag was full of beads. What an Awesome Christmas!!! I love this testimony because it expresses God's love and expresses that what is important to us is important to Him. He loves to put a smile on our face!!

Australia

2008-02-10T21:40:00.000-08:00

Wow! I am going to Australia! I am so excited! In second year we have the privilege of traveling with the Pastors as part of the ministry team. Earlier this year they gave us a list of trips and shortly after I had a dream that I was on an airplane with Pastor Bill headed to Australia. After having this dream I applied for the trip and I was chosen to be part of the team going to Australia. The only thing I needed was the money so I sent out support letters and my trip is paid for,Yeah God!!! I am really excited to see what God is going to do in me and through me on this trip! Its going to be amazing! God is so Good!

Dutch Sheets

2008-02-02T10:11:00.000-08:00

Dutch Sheets is the Speaker for Jesus Culture (youth conference) this year. We had the privilege of having him speak in class yesterday and it was Amazing!!! He talked about wisdom and revelation and that you can't just have wisdom you have to have the revelation of what God is doing. He said that the Spirit of wisdom and revelation is key in any type of ministry. He said we need to live on the floor of wisdom and in the room of revelation! I went to hear him speak again at the conference last night and he spoke about how we are getting ready to experience the greatest awakening in all of history. He encouraged us to pray for our Cities, our schools, and our friends and families. Its the greatest most exciting time in history!!!! So exciting!!!!

A Snow Day!!!

2008-01-29T13:08:00.000-08:00

Yes, its actually snowing! I don't know how much will actually stick but it is enough for a snow day!! I went to work and was on my way to class to find out it was cancelled due to the weather. As much as I love class its nice to have a day to rest and get homework done. Currently, we are getting more rain than snow but maybe it will snow more later. Its not enough to play and I want to play! My roomate and I had just said last night before bed that a snow day would be nice and Jesus loves the desires of our heart. Yeah God!!! and Yeah Snow Day!!!

Oh my! We just had an earthquake! I was just sitting in my room and the house began to shake! WOW! While it was a little nerve wrecking it made me so thankful that I always have Jesus to cling to no matter what! Everything here is fine! We are praying for peace and that the earthquakes stay small. Amen

Beautiful Saturday!

Testimonies

2008-01-14T17:53:00.000-08:00

One of the ladies in my class her elderly mom fell over Christmas and cracked her skull. They began to pray and some more x-rays were taken and she was completely healed. Another amazing testimony is a first year student over Christmas prayed for someone who had been in a coma for 14 years and they were completely healed. God is so good! Nothing is impossible!

Preaching

2008-01-10T19:17:00.000-08:00

I think that I am finally back into the swing of things. School has been really good this week. I found out we all have to preach within the next two weeks! Yikes! It will be good and definitely stretching! I knew I would have to preach this year but I did not know it would be this soon! The good news is that we will be in preaching groups so its not in front of the whole class. We will be evaluated by one of our leaders and by our classmates. They have different things we will be evaluated on using a scale from 1 to 5. (1. Exciting growth opportunity 2.OK 3.good 4.excellent) We were all laughing at number one and Dann told us we are always suppose to call out the gold in people. Above all, I am thankful for such a safe environment where I can step out in new areas.

Friends

2008-01-04T19:22:00.000-08:00

It is the end of a great time being at home as I will be flying back to Redding on Sunday. I was blessed yesterday because I got to have lunch with one of my very dear friends, Stacey. Stacey is amazing! We always have so much fun together talking and laughing. I love that even though we don't get to see each other very often when we do we just pick up right where we left off. That's a great friend! So many great memories! Love you, Stacey!

Family

2007-12-29T15:35:00.000-08:00

I have been home for Christmas and have had a wonderful time and still have a week left. I really enjoy being with my family, they are amazing and we always have so much fun together. My family is something I really treasure. I have amazing parents, sister and brother in law. Also my Aunt, Uncle, and Cousins have been here for a couple of days and just left today. When they come we always have our turkey dinner and open gifts. Then we always have our tradition of going to see a movie while they are here. This year we went to see ''National Treasure 2" which I highly recommend. Usually in the evenings my cousins and I just hang out. This year we cut loose and everyone was dancing. It was so fun and everyone was free and laughing and enjoying life. That's what God created us for, to be free and enjoy life. We need to walk in freedom because the price has already been paid. Thank You, Jesus!

Family Dance Night!
