9/16, 19-20/26 - Pastor to Pastor Family Community Church - Pastor Marie Harrill

I love what you're describing for children.

And just a quick little aside, as I grew up as a pastor's kid, I was with my dad all the time at church and doing church roles.

But then many years later in my life, my wife and I, we planted a church in northern Nevada.

And my kids... all remember going to the church and setting up and tearing down, and they remember all the activities.

And for all of them, they all say that it shaped their life, that there's no junior Holy Spirit, there's no junior Jesus, that you get to be a follower of Jesus at age 5 and 10 and 15 and 25 and 85.

There's a place for everyone.

I want to mention one quick thing.

You have a breakthrough conference coming up.

And I just want to just a little bit, what is a breakthrough conference?

Well, the Breakthrough Conference, we've done several of these now.

We actually do them twice a year.

Twice a year, okay.

Yes, and I have a television program called Breakthrough.Faith.

Perfect.

So we're on that nationally and internationally, but I also have a website.

And so the Breakthrough Conference kind of came out of that.

And I believe that God wants us to have breakthrough in every area of our lives, spirit, soul, and body.

And I think one of the areas in particular that's been a bit challenging for the church is, at large and when i say this is sometimes we like to deal with all the spiritual aspects of life but we don't really want to touch on the soul side yes and if you know it says in scripture that he renews our soul or restores our soul yes but sometimes i think we spiritualize i would probably rather call it we make it religious because jesus wasn't religious yeah But we spiritualize even how we deal with our soul.

And so in the Breakthrough Conference, it really is just more of an intense – I shouldn't say intense – a focused two-day time period.

Concentrated, focused, yep.

We actually have 10 sessions.

They're very – intentional in what we cover we talk about breakthrough and what that looks like what is breakthrough according to scripture how should it happen and then we have a couple sessions that we do on soul management because i think that if you have soul management it makes you a better christian it makes you a better wife it makes you a better employee it makes you a better boss yeah makes you a better christian and and We have such a weird way of thinking

of life as being compartmentalized.

I write a lot about the marketplace and I say that they're sacred and secular.

And we have this big, huge Grand Canyon.
