The I-Heart Revolution: Were All In This together David309211 2013-09-26 | You know society can be so quick to kind of sell us this picture that if you look like this, or if you have that, or if you be like them, then everything is going to be sweet. The reality is, it's a lie. I watch a generation coming through that doesn't understand that they've got value. They look at the media and they look at what the world says and they just think they're worth nothing. And they get caught in a cycle of: "My parents are on the dole and on welfare, and they fight and they bicker, and my parents are divorced". And they don't get that that doesn't define who they are. I remember just going like, I wonder if anyone had even had the same thoughts, or worries or struggles that I did. You feel so alone, you want so much to know what's going on, but you feel like you don't know what's going on.the issues young people in Switzerland face are lack of identity and values. We have a lot of divorces. The divorce rate is more than 50%, so nobody tells them that they are loved, that they are worth something. They work hard to get a lot of money, to have their status symbols, and they feel there is something missing so they consume drugs. They have sexual relations that won't work, and other relations that destroy them. You go to school during the week or you work during the week, and then you're basically waiting for the weekend so you can go out and get completely off your head drunk. And then you have a hangover on Sunday, and then you go back to school or work again so you can go do that again the next weekend. And even this idea of self injury; hearing from people who said that things felt so out of control, and life felt like such a storm on the inside. And so they were, something like cutting was this idea of using pain to deal with pain, and to try and have some sense of control. Which for people who don't struggle with that feels so often very, very foreign, and even hard to relate to. Everything's plastic in the culture that I come from. Everything's dependant on who you know, and what you drive, and what you wear.For me in high school I cared so much about what everyone thought about me. So instead of kinda going who am I? What am I supposed to do? I got so sidetracked on who should I be for other people? And you're cool or you're not cool; just the stupid stuff that comes in high school, your whole identity is formed there. For me that was a massive battle, being comfortable with who I was. It just really is about appearances, and it is cosmetic in every way, it's a cosmetic peace and satisfaction. And underneath it all, there's just, there's the same, it's just empty. It's empty...We can be so quick to kind of chase, I suppose in vain, our value in the attention or applause of man. And we compare ourselves to this picture of success that society throws at us. And in the process, I suppose we trade our individuality, the things that make us unique for basically the uniform of the crowd, and when we do that we just become like everyone else, and we miss perhaps the opportunity to play the part that only we can play. — Transcript from the I-Heart Revolution, We're All In This Together

This is Janine's journey into a life of true happiness and peace. She is now a happy, confident mother, wife, preacher and author.- Open House 'We also see amazing miracles of healing. But you know one of the things that I have realized is that just because you don't come in on crutches or maybe have a diagnosis of cancer or something like that, you know that doesn't mean that you don't need healing. Look around, we may not look the same, but underneath our skin we're not that different. Each one of us has got our stuff, everyone's got their issues, their things that they're dealing with and trying to overcome. And maybe you have been dealing with something for such a long time, and you're at the point of actually giving up, thinking you know what? It's been this long now, medicine can't help me, people can't help me, counselling can't help me, my family lived like this for generations. What's the point? And you've given up. Well friend, I'm asking you to consider God, tonight. Would you just maybe let your guard down just a little bit, open your heart just a fraction and consider the possibility that the God who created the universe, the God who loves you beyond your comprehension, might just be able to come into your world and transform your life, and heal that hurt or help you break free of that addiction, or that bondage, or that heart ache or whatever you're dealing with.'
Sam Childers - Machine Gun Preacher David309211 2013-01-11 | I don't own any of the photos. Figured I would put a few together to give you a feel for the man and the circumstances surrounding his story.

"Sam Childers has lived such an incredible life that a Hollywood movie has been made about him. The former drug dealing criminal was persistently told by his father that he was going to get himself killed. Sam talks to us about establishing a relationship with God and becoming known as the machine gun preacher. We also hear about his work in Sudan where he builds orphanages for children.

Testimonies from the 2010 Hillsong Vision David309211 2013-01-10 | An extract from the 2010 Hillsong Vision. Felt it was an insightful and inspiring film, and contains the testimonies of powerful, life-changing transformations in ordinary people. Thought I might share! ==========================When you're a little girl you never think that your family will bust up because they can't stand each other. That's just not supposed to happen. How did we even get here? Was it my fault? Why couldn't our family just get along? Standing there watching my family come apart I just remember thinking, 'God if you're real, how can you let this happen? Are you even there? Does it even matter to you?Family is one of life's most precious gifts. But why is it that we don't realize it until it's gone? We work and we play and we save a little, and somewhere in there you try to get ahead. And you try to fit God in too. Life can just get so crazy. Then one day you find out your wife has cancer.The first criminal act you commit never seems like a big deal; multiple kilos of heroin, firearms. Four and a half years of my life behind bars. The worst thing about being in prison is feeling like you've run out of choices. You've got no options. Sitting in that cold jail cell, no TV, no radio, nothing except a bible, I remember thinking, 'a bible? That's the opposite of everything I believe and stand for.'After growing up in religion, I used to think that the last place you would ever find me would be in church. But you know it's kind of strange how when you're sitting on a gutter, your eyes dilated and your head spinning from the concoction of drugs that you've taken that night, how things can change. When you run a nightclub, and you do the fashion shows and the VIP gigs and all the raves, you learn to party hard. A cocktail of drugs and alcohol, they were just a way of life for me. I thought I had nothing to lose. But sitting in that rancid gutter I lost control thinking, 'Is this where my life is going to end?' God, if you can hear me, if you can see me, if you care and you're real, I need your help. ==========================You can find the full video here: http://vimeo.com/9221360#at=0

Encouraging Message and Prayer over your year, by Chris Mendez David309211 2013-01-01 | "Friend it's not that in 2013 you're not going to face challenges. Because that ain't a real Christianity, where we think everything is going to go well, and nothing is going to go wrong. We live in a fallen world. But friend I want to tell you, you can expect to go through the fire, and not get burned. You can expect to walk through the waters and not be covered. You can expect to face a mountain, but get over the other side. You can expect to be in the middle of a battle, but to be victorious. Because God says of you, 'You are more than a conqueror, you are victorious in Christ Jesus. You are the head, and not the tail. You walk above, and not beneath. You can expect to get through any storm, and get on the other side of any river that wants to block your way. You can expect to see the faithfulness of God, and get you through that circumstance. Because the God that parted the Red Sea for Moses, He's the God that will make a way for you, where there is no way. The God that raised Lazareth from the dead, He's the God that will resurrect your dead dreams and your dead purposes. The God that restored sight to blind bartimaeus, He's the God that will give you a fresh vision, and a new start for 2013. You can expect God to move, because he will never fail you. He's on your side. You have the same power that Raised Christ from the dead, abiding with you. That means that you are on the winning team. You can enter into all that God has for you. "
Chris Mendez, Expectation David309211 2012-12-31 | Chris Mendez delivers inspiring message in lead up to the 2013 New Year. What are you expecting for your life during this up and coming New Year?

Don't lose sight, don't lose hope, let our expectations be based upon an all-faithful, all-powerful and all-loving God, and the spirit that dwells in our lives. Be encouraged and take heart, because you can expect more!"Friend it's not that in 2013 you're not going to face challenges. Because that ain't a really Christianit, where we think everything is going to go well, and nothing is going to go wrong. We live in a fallen world. But friend I want to tell you, you can expect to go through the fire, and not get burnt. You can expect to walk through the waters and not be covered.

Paul de Jong: When God Gets Your Heart David309211 2012-12-03 | Paul de Jong preaching at Hillsong Church. Very good sermon about the dominating convictions that lie at the centre of our hearts. You can hear a message that you believe is for you, but what is the loudest voice that you carry at the core of who you are? Because that is the voice that will resonate throughout your thoughts, your feelings, your behaviour, your being. Paul de Jong explains the importance of "marinating" ourselves in the right message, and surrendering, opening up our inner most self, to God. Then we can let go of the stuff that drags us down, and consequently begin to discover our true self as God intended.
