Tammy Hotsenpiller

Today is about unity, community, and people. What do you think life groups were back in Moses’ time? Fasting Focus is on Jehoshaphat.

2nd Miracle was Moses and the burning bush. We all have an encounter with a burning bush and we hear the voice of God. He wants to speak to us. We need to listen. God wants to work in our life. Are you asking God what your assignment is? Fasting focus. INTIMACY.

Sophia was a firefighter's wife.  In 2015 she was diagnosed with breast cancer.  Breast cancer was hard on Sophia and hard on her marriage.  Sophia met with other cancer patients while going through her chemo infusions.  The doctor called her “GI Jane”.  We all have battles to fight in life.  But we choose how we do that.  At the end of her treatments Sophia’s husband changed.  He left her.  That was more difficult than the cancer.  You don’t want to miss what else happened and what God did and how Sophia is an advocate for firefighters.  God said, “I’ll take it from here."

Everybody has a book of life and everybody has many chapters.  Julie graduated in education and biblical studies from Minnesota where she is from.  What was stirring in Julie?  Seeking God to know what was right for her.  Some doors after college opened for her with Teen Challenge.  Then she made her way to California.  Julie wanted to change the page to the next chapter.  She only planned to be here a year.  She came to Influence Church and God opened up an opportunity for her to serve on staff and also to serve at the school of Influence Church.  Listen to the exciting step in her voice as she tells her story.

God gives all of us the next chapter in real life.  Tammy met Chuck on a missions trip to Mexico.  He had to get out of his comfort zone.  Chuck said there has been a real move of men in our church now.  Men are coming around men. Iron sharpens iron.  You will hear who Chuck used to be.  This story is so powerful.  After this men’s conference his wife and daughter saw a new husband and dad.  Chuck gives 3 words to the men out there.  1.  Accountability, 2.  Evangelism, 3.  Dive into the Word of God.

Madison is the new assistant with Tammy at Influence Church.  Madison’s back story and roots are from Georgia.  She has a little brother who was born with Down Syndrome.  He was the greatest miracle.  She met Holy Spirit in college but had an identity problem.  She tells us how God uses messed up people and she has a great story.  You will hear the joy in Madison as God ignited her walk with her.  

George Haine's life is a volume of chapters and has lived a life of integrity.  He has made such a difference in so many lives.  Listen to his back story.  It is so exciting.  He even walked with Martin Luther King, Jr.  Listen to his 3 steps that we need to make to be a different society.  God is the author of your story too.

How God prepared Courtney before He called her.  Courtney’s previous chapter prepared her.  Courtney prayed and waited for the Lord.  Listen to her joy in her story of her next chapter.  When the chapter page turns you anticipate things but God has so much more.
