What an incredible testimony of healing, deliverance & divine revelation! Pastor Jack Smith was gracious enough to come and share from the depths of his heart his testimony. God literally came down and spoke to Him as well as revealed himself in a powerful way. The scripture he was led to before he even knew the Word was Romans 10:9 "that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead you will be saved."
Not only was Jack radically saved, but filled with divine knowledge. As the room filled up, our eyes did too. The powerful story of his abusive and addictive background including neglect as a child and abandonment culminating in visions of Jesus, angels and demonic spirits was riveting. But the most moving part of his life was a lonely, broken little boy who found a love he'd never known. Becoming a man on fire for God was the change Jack needed to turn his life around.
He began sharing his new experience and faith with others. After finding out about church, other Christians and being mentored, Jack was able to not only lead many to the Lord but also went to Bible college, established churches and became a pastor. My husband and I met Pastor Jack and attended his church for six years. He currently holds services online and is a great friend of the ministry.

Daughter of Naomi Embraced at Cornerstone Bible Fellowship
Speaking on the ministry at a local church in South Bend
Being the "light in the darkness" takes #1 Acknowledging God is light and there is no darkness in Him #2 God is the source of light and He fills us with His light when we accept Him as our Lord #3 We are children of the light and we should walk in it. Only through walking in the light can we expose the darkness & offer redemption to those who are lost and walking in darkness.
Testimony is powerful when the experiences show the person God is the only way to live a life of joy & freedom! Courtney's story of God's saving, healing & delivering power will give hope to the hopeless and encouragement to those struggling.
Even those that had a Christian home can stray and following the deceiving voice of the enemy. Steve's story of coming to a realization that without God he would not be able to overcome his addiction and destructive lifestyle. God not only restored him but blessed him beyond his belief.

Mentoring & Support Group Pastor Mark Lantz from Christian Center Teaching
Our Pastor, Mark Lantz from our home church, came to teach our women at our group meeting on Tuesday, August 28th and brought a powerful and encouraging message on Living Through a Paradigm Shift. His context was from Joshua Chapter 1 verses 2 through 6.
Pastor Mark's reference to Joshua, who came after Moses, a leader of the Hebrews, was able to see what other's couldn't see. He was a spy who went into Canaan to see what was there. He held onto the promise God gave him in Joshua 1:3 "Every place that the sole of your foot shall tread upon, that have I given unto you as I said unto Moses."
"The reason some people never grow is because they are never willing to change their mindset away from what got them to where they are, to get a mindset of where they need to go."
"You can never change what is in your hand until you change what is in your head." Dr. Mark Lantz
YOU MUST BE SECURE IN WHO YOU ARE
Joshua 1:5-6 There shall not any man be able to stand before thee all the days of thy life: as I was with Moses, [so] will I be with thee: I will not forsake thee 6 Be strong and of a good courage: for unto this people thou shalt divide for an inheritance the land, which I sware unto their fathers to give them.
Secure people learn what to give. Luke 6:38 Give and it shall be given unto you: good measure, pressed down and shaken together, and running over shall men give into your bossom. For the same measure that you mete withal it shall be measured to you again.
You must increase your circle of people who are better than you. Proverbs 13:20 He that walketh with wise [men] shall be wise: but a companion of fools shall be destroyed.
BE BOLD ENOUGH TO DO SOMETHING YOU'VE NEVER DONE
Change takes guts.
The challenges you are going to face -
People are comfortable with mediocrity - go through a shift, but can't accept it
People are fearful of what they don't know
