What would move us to action? What moves us to prayer? This walk of faith is sometimes like walking a tightrope. We find ourselves on a fine line between two realms, the realm of the spirit into which we press and the natural realm that stares us down daily. However, we press on towards the mark of our high calling. Passion should always lead to prayer and compassion. Faith in Christ is always coupled with action.
PASSION & COMPASSION GODBREED & IRIS SAVANNAH 2015
It was a gathering like none other and a first for this region. We believe that God both can and will be seen in this region. Here are a few nuggets that have stuck with people and caused hearts to become enflamed and full of faith in Jesus and the hope of Glory. Faith filled words released to those that would hear a sound and become a sound.
JASON LEE JONES
What does it look like to live out the great commandment? What does it look like to love with ALL? Passion and Compassion is a call to love, be loved, and from that place, love the world. It is, after all, what we were created for, intimacy that only comes from divinity meeting depravity.
The greatest thing you can do is buy oil!
PAPA ROLLAND
The starting point is God is Big.
Sin is the only problem.
We are being perfected by a perfectionist.
Jesus is the only answer.
The Bible says to behold both the kindness and severity of God.
In a Christian’s life EVERYTHING has to be a MIRACLE
Hell. What does it look like? Don’t underestimate sin and the price for displeasing God.
LYLE PHILLIPS
Brokenness unto breakthrough.
If you’re going to go do missions, be it in Savannah or anywhere in the world, and you’re going to go pursue the heart of the OPPRESSED and shower them with love; you have to be that passionate as well about the heart of the OPPRESSOR and shower them with love.
MAMA HEIDI
Shared the boat story and about us being called to be PARTAKERS and PARTICIPANTS and called out FIRE that spread throughout the hungry.
MISSION POSSIBLE
Just last week we gathered in the Netherlands for Mission Possible to go into the unseen and make way for breakthrough in the nations that have been called locked to the Gospel. The power released in prayer and in worship and in the revelatory words of pioneers was exceedingly above what we could have imagined.
JAKE HAMILTON & THE SOUND
We also gathered our local community for Jake Hamilton and the Sound. Again, the power of worship transcends. Jake ministered courageously and powerfully on the Spirit of Adoption being in action. The altar filled with repentant hungry hearts that stood bathed clean in spirit, soul, and body.
These past couple of months, love has looked like conferences, worship, and praying our guts out. It has looked like the lost coming home and drug attics becoming clean. The brokenhearted have found that they are fully loved. It has looked like long and rough plane rides, sleepless nights, and tears shed because of being apart from your loved ones for the sake of the Gospel.
Please pray for our base as we continue to release the sound of heaven. We are digging wells and will continue to go after the brokenhearted. Please pray for us as we get direction for the Lord on effective outreaches and the approaching SV1 School of the Arts.
In His Great Love,
Jason and Regina Jones.
