Gold Medal Living

Posted on February 24, 2010 by Marlo Jenkins

I am loving watching the Olympics… except for last Sunday night’s hockey game. A few days ago as Miriam and I were watching, I said: “It would be awesome to compete at that level.” Then I woke up. All of us have heard stories of Olympic athletes and what it takes to get to that level—the sacrifices, the years of preparation and training; the disciplined routines of rest, work, nutrition, etc. All to attain a prize that’s very exciting and commendable, but also is very temporaral. It has a temporary ‘shelf life’. I sometimes wonder that if, as Christians, we…

Posted on January 8, 2010 by Marlo Jenkins

“Divine conversation”... for some, that sounds quite unattainable. it’s really not – anyone can talk to God. When someone is honestly seeking, and wants to engage God in dialogue, God is all over that. In Jeremiah 33:3 (a book in the Old Testament of the Bible), God speaks through the prophet and says: “Call to me and I will answer you and show you great and mighty things which you do not know.” That gets my attention! That’s God’s invitation to say, “Hey God, let’s talk.” Up to and including Sunday, February 7 we are going to be talking about…

Some of the best Christmas memories we have as a family are the times when we found ways to serve others or to share with those in some type of need. We all know that giving is what it’s all about. ...

God is Closer

Posted on December 2, 2009 by Marlo Jenkins

Over these last several weeks we have focused on the theme “God Is Closer Than You Think” in our Sunday gatherings and in our small groups. It has been very cool to see God do various things in people’s lives this fall. What a fantastic experience it was last Sunday morning to hear some of the good news reports. I love it when people are willing to open their lives to others and talk about the journey… we are all “further ahead” because of it! I love being a part of a healthy church body. There is something rejuvenating and…

This is a Big Deal

Posted on October 17, 2009 by Marlo Jenkins

… no really, you don’t understand… this is a “Big Deal” – I’m Blogging, as of this moment, for the first time in my life. Can’t you just feel the energy? As we launch our new website for Eaglemont Church, we also dive into a topic in our Sunday Gatherings & Small Groups (over the next six weeks) that really could revolutionize your perception of who God is and who he wants to be in relation to you. The title of this John Ortberg material, if true, is life-changing and eternity-altering: “God Is Closer Than You Think”! Many times, people’s…
