The Mingling of Souls Marriage Conference

The Mingling of Souls Marriage Conference

As creatures designed to live life in community, it is no exaggeration to say that relationships have a profound impact on our lives. From the time we are born, it is the relationships with those around us, from parents to friends to coaches and mentors and teachers, that shape us into the people we are to become. For those who are married, there is no doubt that our relationship with our spouse can be a source of joy, struggle, happiness, bitterness, or fulfillment—and often it is a combination of these things. The relationship with our spouse is the most important human relationship in our life, yet can sometimes be one of the last things to receive our attention in an overpacked schedule. Regardless of where your marriage currently sits on the spectrum from “couldn’t be better” to “adequate” to “struggling” to “barely hanging on”, every couple can benefit from some encouragement and investment in their relationship.

The Cooks Are Moving to Denver

The Cooks Are Moving to Denver

Josh and Sarah Cook are following God’s call to plant a church in Denver, Colorado. 

It has been something that God has been developing in their lives for many years. It began with a love for Christ and a desire to see the world come to know the good news of his Kingdom. God showed them that the way he accomplishes this is through the local church and that cities like Denver don’t have enough of them. He also birthed in them a love for urban areas and the next generation. Josh and Sarah hope to see and be a part of what the next generation church looks like in the heart of Denver.

1 Story, 1 Prayer, 1 Need: A GX Update from Matt & Keeva O'Mealey in Des Moines

After being a part of the early days of Vintage, thanks to the invite by our campus neighbors, Scott and Wendy McGuire, Vintage Church has been an immense part of our story and formation as ministers of the Gospel, both as a couple and individually. It was bittersweet to move away over 2 years ago now, because our closest friends and co-laborers in the Gospel were formed through serving New Orleans through Vintage. Needless to say, we are super encouraged and excited that Vintage Church and its staff continue to encourage us as well as help to push the Gospel forward through the MORE campaign there in NOLA and abroad through the many that God continues to send out.

1 Story, 1 Prayer, 1 Need: A GX Update from Southeast Asia

1 Story, 1 Prayer, 1 Need: A GX Update from Southeast Asia

Below is an update from one of Vintage Church's Global Outreach partners in Southeast Asia.

Just days prior to moving to Southeast Asia in October 2013, I had the joy of being prayed over and sent out by Vintage Church after preaching at Rock 'N' Bowl. Fast forward to last month, I briefly returned to the US and once again had the joy of preaching at Vintage and reporting on all that God is doing in Southeast Asia. My wife, our three sons, and I are so glad to be commissioned by Vintage Church to follow Jesus to the ends of the earth. Yes, Rob and Annabeth are family to us, but truthfully all of Vintage Church feels like family because of how you stay connected to us. Our joy is full and overflowing because we love being connected to a faith family that is doing the same in New Orleans as we together seek to live the gospel, serve the city, and be the church - no matter where God takes us.

See Life Differently by Looking Through the Eyes of a Lion

See Life Differently by Looking Through the Eyes of a Lion

What will you do when the unthinkable happens in your life?

Jesus encouraged listeners that “in me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world.” (John 16:33) Suffering isn’t really a matter of “if” but more a “when.” Each of us have unfortunately faced a devastating loss, terrible time, challenging obstacle, loss of a job, or some other painful season. In the midst of the pain there is a way to have HOPE. When we open our eyes and heart to the Lord there is incredible power available to each of us.

1 Story, 1 Prayer, 1 Need: A GX Update from Jonathan & Amanda Griffin in San Antonio

It’s been three years since the Lord called us to plant the Gospel in San Antonio. We sold everything we had and packed it into a Uhaul and moved our life to San Antonio and left behind our deepest friendships and relationships at Vintage Church. Now, 1 church plant and 2 kids later, there isn’t a week that goes by that Amanda and I don’t spend time reminiscing about the time God gave us at Vintage Church. We are so thankful for what God is doing at Vintage and we are praying alongside you for MORE. As a GX partner, I am excited to update you with all the things God is doing here in San Antonio through our partnership in the Gospel!
