Does anyone ever ask, "How are you?" and you reply, "Well, under the circumstances...."  The problem is that's exactly where we are living - under the circumstances!  How do we rise above the adversity and sing a song of praise?  From the Old Testament book of 1 Samuel, Jill Briscoe shows us how Hannah, under very difficult circumstances, found the secret.1 Samuel 1 & 2

How can we live above the problems of everyday life? Habakkuk tells us how, and it's all about getting God's perspective. There is unspeakable joy in embracing, accepting, and submitting to whatever "burden" God has called each of us to endure. With His help, we can live above it. Teaching from the book of Habakkuk, this is the second message in Jill's two-message series on the spiritual art of leadership.

Effective ministry will not happen if the ones who are seeking to minister have lost their cutting edge. In building the Kingdom, it is critical to stay spiritually sharp. The question is knowing how to do that. Based on 2 Kings 6:1-7, this is the first message in Jill's two-message series on the spiritual art of leadership.

This is the final message in Jill's 6-message series, "Running on Empty." Luke 15:1-24

One of the hardest things in life is facing rejection, especially when it comes from someone we love. We, like Leah, might keep striving, struggling, and manipulating to earn acceptance from our loved one. We may feel alone, but God sees and hears what we endure. In this message, Jill walks us through Leah's struggle with rejection and shows us the God who saw, heard, and loved Leah through it all. Based on Genesis 29-30, this is the 5th teaching in Jill Briscoe's 6-message series, Running on Empty.

We all get tired sometimes. And sometimes in our tiredness we get to a point where we, like Elijah, say "I’ve had enough, Lord." Where do we go once we've reached that point? How can we find refreshment and get moving again? In this message, Jill uses Elijah's story to teach us that God alone can refresh us just as He did for Elijah. Based on I Kings 19:1-18, this is the 4th teaching in Jill Briscoe's 6-message series, Running on Empty.

What does your daily schedule look like? Is it full of errands and events? Sometimes we become workaholics and worriers, filling our days with too many tasks and constant concerns about things we can't control rather than taking time to focus on the most important thing of all. In this message, Jill uses the example of Martha to show us instead how Jesus would want us to fill our time. Taken from Luke 10:38-42, this is the 3rd teaching in Jill Briscoe's 6-message series, Running on Empty.

Life can be rough. Bad things happen. It's easy to take those bad things and walk down the road of bitterness where our relationships with friends and family suffer. In this message, Jill tells us how Naomi's experiences made her an empty, bitter woman, but she got back on track with the help of her daughter-in-law Ruth and became a full, better woman. Based on the book of Ruth, this is the 2nd teaching in Jill Briscoe's 6-message series, Running on Empty.

Ever have those prayers that God doesn't seem to be answering? We all have dreams and longings - sometimes they go unfulfilled. We wonder, "Where is God in my pain? Does He even hear me?" In this message, Jill uses the example of Hannah and her desire for a child to teach us that God does indeed hear us. Taken from I Samuel 1-3, this is the first teaching in Jill Briscoe's 6-message series, Running on Empty.

The fields are ready - people are dry and waiting to hear a message of hope, meaning and purpose of life. The seed, the Word of God, is dynamic, powerful, precious and full of life. God calls those in His kingdom to share this good news. Like a farmer sowing seed, we are to be spiritual farmers generously spreading God's truth. But why is it so hard to share our faith? Is it that we're waiting for perfect weather before risking to go out in the fields? Or are we not seeing the lost the way God does? Are we not aware there's an enemy circling us, seeking to thwart our plans and snatch the seed? With attention-grabbing stories and personal insight, Jill teaches us to focus on being good soil - taking God's truth and with His watering, producing a spiritual harvest for His kingdom.
