"Faith is Risky Business, but then again so is fear." That is a line taken from one of Doug Tawlks' adventure novels in the "Defenders of the Breach" series. The greatest adventures happen after we risk faith and it's then that God's power and presence become tangible to us. In order to fully embrace God's purpose for our lives we will have to live courageously in the face of intimidation. Join us as we take hold the courage that will propel us into the incredible adventures that God has for us!

"I have been amazed at what the Lord Jesus has done in my life and continues to do! To watch the Lord continue to draw His children unto Himself brings me unmeasured joy. Many years ago I heard a quote attributed to Charles Spurgeon, "Catch on fire for the Lord and people will come from many miles away to watch you burn." Christ lifted me up when I could do nothing, set me upon the rock, gave me a new family and now I stand, with Him, covered in His righteousness. It is the knowledge of the Gospel message that daily lifts me up and draws my heart to worship the Lord with all that is in me!"
