What a Beautiful 7 Days of Intimacy & Worship


Hey Reader,

What an incredible journey these past 7 days have been! Before anything else, I want to say how honored and humbled I am to have walked through this fast with you. You made the intentional decision to show up, to stay committed, and to follow through, and that matters. Choosing intimacy and worship in the midst of everyday life is no small thing, and God honors the obedience and surrender it took to say “yes” to this journey.

As we conclude our Intimacy & Worship Fast and Dedication, my heart is truly full. I know God has drawn each of us closer to Him in deeply personal and powerful ways.

The moments of stillness, the whispers you heard in prayer, and the ways He met you in worship are precious seeds He planted throughout this week. Don’t let them fade. Take time today to slow down and revisit your journal entries, prayer notes, and the specific ways God revealed Himself to you.

These encounters are not just memories; they are direction and strength for your journey throughout 2026.

Reader, your testimony has power! I invite you to visit our Prayer Wall to:

  • Share your fast and dedication experience
  • Post your praise reports
  • Submit any continuing prayer requests
  • Encourage others with what God has done

Remember, the Prayer Wall remains active throughout the year. I encourage you to return regularly!

Thank you for being part of the 2026 Intimacy & Worship Fast and Dedication. Your commitment, prayers, and participation have made this journey even more meaningful for our entire community.

Remember, intimacy and worship aren’t limited to a 7-day fast; they are a lifestyle. As you continue to make space for His presence, stay attentive to His voice, His nearness, and His leading. I’m believing with you for the continued unfolding of everything He has whispered to your heart during these 7 days and everything He will reveal as you remain close to Him.

P.S. - Don't forget to take the assessment! It'll provide valuable insights as you move forward in what God has shown you during this time.

Hey Reader, There are moments in Scripture that invite us to slow down and pay attention, not to the miracle itself, but to the obedience that made room for it. That’s why I’m inviting you into this 3-week devotional journey, Do Whatever He Says. This journey is an invitation to move from observing what God is doing to actively responding to what He is saying. To release the pressure of making things happen and instead trust that obedience creates space for God to work. As we begin Week One,...

And if you didn’t celebrate, I hope you still felt surrounded by God’s peace and goodness. As we descend into the end of the year, I know your inbox and social media feeds are overflowing with “set goals,” “new year, new you,” and “finish strong” messages… but as believers, our focus must be different. Our priority is always the Kingdom. And when we...
