Trellis Loving Others

Trellis: Guided Spiritual Rhythms | Loving in Exile

In a culture that prizes independence, we can forget that we are made for one another. As image-bearers of the Triune God, our lives are deeply interwoven—our identity, our growth, and even our calling take shape in relationship with others. God often speaks through the people He places around us, shaping us and inviting us into redemptive love. This Trellis invites you to reflect on the question: Who are the… Read More »Trellis: Guided Spiritual Rhythms | Loving in Exile

Trellis: Guided Spiritual Rhythms | Becoming Fully Alive

There is a moment in every Christian’s life when everything changes. Despite the seismic nature of this event, it can come about quietly and invisibly without pomp and circumstance. Scripture describes this moment as a miraculous movement from death to life. Theologians refer to this as regeneration, not meant as a metaphor or symbol, but as an ontological reality. Biblically speaking, to live is to live by the Spirit who… Read More »Trellis: Guided Spiritual Rhythms | Becoming Fully Alive

Trellis | New Voice: Discerning God’s Tone

Our perception of God shapes how we relate to Him. Misunderstandings or distortions can keep us at a distance, missing the joy of communion with Father, Son, and Spirit. Yet the good news of the gospel is that the Triune God draws near—welcoming us as both friend and child, inviting us into ongoing conversation with Him. Over these two weeks, you’ll be guided through a variety of prayer practices that… Read More »Trellis | New Voice: Discerning God’s Tone

Trellis: Life-Giving Rhythms for Seeing Further

In the Norse sagas, “Ragnarok” is the end of the age, the apocalypse that sweeps away gods and men alike. The stories tell of a winter without end, a wolf that devours the sun, and oceans that swallow the land. In that terrible twilight, the watchman Heimdall stands on the rainbow bridge between the realms, eyes trained on the horizon. His task is not to fight first, but to see… Read More »Trellis: Life-Giving Rhythms for Seeing Further

Made to Play

At the start of my GreenHouse journey, I knew my dream would involve life-giving creativity, connectedness, and healing, but I had so many potential callings and creative ideas that I felt overwhelmed by the prospect of choosing one thing to focus on. Beneath that was a deeper question of identity: Who am I? By what dreams, pursuits, or habits can I define myself? How can I consolidate all these parts… Read More »Made to Play

Stirring the Imagination

If you asked someone to recall a moment when they felt really, truly alive, they might describe it with words like ecstatic, euphoric, awakening, flow, vision. Like the mundane and commonplace take on new and more animated meaning around them. That is to say, they don’t alter reality or bend the world toward themselves, but rather feel their inner person change and rise up with renewed hope in their current… Read More »Stirring the Imagination

Unlocking Your Creative Process

I have learned two main things through this process, first is that ideas do not form and come alive at the speed which I would like, and second that the best way to go through the process of forming and putting a container around an idea is within community.  Goldenwood’s intentional slowing down at the beginning of this process was so helpful, it forced me to hit the breaks on… Read More »Unlocking Your Creative Process

For We Walk By Faith

For we walk by faith, not by sight,For years I strived to run with all my might.Grasping for control, held tightly by fear,Overthinking every idea—Was that me, or was that God I hear? I reached a point of surrender,A realization: this dream I have, I cannot do alone.Down on my knees I begged God,Bring me the right people—I can’t do this on my own. And in that moment, everything began… Read More »For We Walk By Faith

From Nebulous to Necessary

I am one of the lucky ones. When I was four, I said I wanted to be a veterinarian. I set the goal and then began doing the studies and the activities that would lead to that outcome. I graduated from Cornell University in 2005 with a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine, and it was one of the best days of my life. It’s been 20 years, and I still find… Read More »From Nebulous to Necessary
