A week doesn’t go and I am not asked ‘what is PURE.’ The passion each of you create with the lives you live and the hearts you have about Jesus makes people ask! While on Wed the PURE team is up front its you who invite a friend, take a risk and a stand for change that make the lasting impact through Jesus and what He, God and the Holy Spirit have done in you.

So the question remains what is PURE…for us that weekly experience the Movement, there is no question, but for those who only see the result its often virally inexplicable…PURE is ‘Hundreds of passionate young adults uniting, in worship, believing that everyone can experience hope, redemption, love, and a second chance.’

But the cause is so much more, it is you, it is your heart, the eternal part of you(your soul) and the souls of others we see as our cause. A cause that exists for one reason to bring ‘Hope to Every Heart.’

This doesn’t end and begin with us…truth is this life is nor ever was about us…its ours to give away in His name, and in every way…to the homeless lady in Santa Monica, the orphan in Cambodia, and the shattered in Haiti. Every person is a soul, a soul that needs the HOPE of Jesus. Whats ‘HOPE to Every Heart’ look like for you?

Sitting at home thinking about tomorrow night…I am not sure that I have ever been this excited to share unflattering and personal failures as I am right now. Its never easy but always rewarding.

I am believing that each of you being able to participate with me in sharing each of out ‘Secrets’ in a safe and healing way will find freedom, the hope of Galatians 5.

We have some amazing things planned for this series, things I cant share but ones you dont want to miss. My Secret is one you dont want your friends to miss…not to mention our baptism in a few weeks…get signed up tomorrow.

more to come…in the mean time, live//PC

We have a new page comin that will library all our videos and the home page video player will automatically update soon…in the mean time heres 1.6.09…enjoy! live//PC!!!

For weeks now I have shared off and on, with PURE and our leaders that there is a pending anticipation in my soul.  Something beyond just an excitement or an emotional high.  Last night I shared with PURE and our leaders that what we do this week and this month will set the tone for this next year.  How we choose to live our spiritual lives and how they are expressed in our everyday lives will be decided by what we do here an now.  Truth is simple, and its what our ‘My Secret’ series launch next week is all about…taking the hidden and wounding places in each of our hearts and recognizing that if we are going to take ‘Hope to Every Heart‘ we need to let our wounds become places of healing.

My Anticipation…is simple, its a belief that we can become the literal living proof that People of the Second Chance can and do exist….because of radical grace and healing.  I am so blessed and my heart is excited for those of you who made a choice last night to become a 2nd chance reality, not to mention the hundreds of you who have in the last year…God is HUGE He adores us and loves us with unwaivering passion…

Living//Passionate Christianity is a choice…In 2010 Im choosing to be a person of a 2nd chance and live out this hope and new life Ive been given…A life that is about Him and not me…hope you’ll join me and the rest of the PURE staff and take ‘HOPE to Every Heart.’
