As someone who is made in the image of God, you have a better understanding than you might think about His longing desire for companionship and friendship.
Are You a Friend of God? explores Scripture that reveals God's friendships with His people. Enoch was God's walking and talking friend, Job was His hurting friend, and Moses was His waiting friend. What kind of friend are you?
In this message Jill Briscoe will shift how you think about your relationship with God and challenge you to identify, and grow in yourself, the characteristics that God is looking for in a friend.

When the Holy Spirit comes into our lives, we receive all of Him into all of us. But did you know that we can abuse Him? He is abused when we suppress Him, quench Him, or subdue Him. Limiting Him to only certain areas of our lives is considered abuse... and a sin.

In the Scriptures, oil is used as a symbol of joy and gladness. And we as Christians have a little pot of oil in us that will never run dry. The Holy Spirit is the oil in our lamps that keeps us burning, allowing us to be a light in this dark world.

Keturah didn't know it, but when she hid in her family's stable that dark, star-filled night, she was in for a big surprise! Regularly cast aside because of her crippled hands, God had carefully chosen this young, Hebrew girl to be part of His miraculous entrance into the world!
The Innkeeper's Daughter is a tender, whimsical story that gives you a glimpse of what might have happened in the stable on the night Jesus was born. Written and narrated by Jill Briscoe, children and adults will be captivated by her vivid descriptions of the stable and the many unusual visitors who came. Follow little Keturah inside the cramped, smelly barn and see what she saw – talking animals, chubby angels, regal wise men, and ultimately, the King of Kings, whose coming wasn't the only miracle that night.
Enjoy this audio recording of Jill Briscoe reading from her children's book, The Innkeeper's Daughter.
