  1. Beauty and Inspiration

    Dearly Beloved,

    I recently posted to my blog what I consider a most beautiful and worship-filled video of the Australian singer Dami Im performing ‘This is My Desire’.  If you are looking for five minutes of inspiration, put on the headphones, go to my blog here, close your eyes and worship with this singer.  –geno

  5. More Resources for Dealing with Depression

    Dearly Beloved,

    On my personal blog I have posted a fantastic note I recently received from Adrienne Kiesel on the topic of finding relief from depression.  What makes this most helpful is that she opens her journey to all of us and humbly tells us where she has found help.  This is exactly what the Apostle Paul means when he writes 2 Corinthians 1:3-4, “Blessed by the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our affliction, so that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.” (ESV)

    I strongly urge you to take a look at Adrienne’s post.  You can find it here.  –geno

  6. Resources for Dealing with Depression

    In a recent blog post I published links to a number of resources that I found very helpful in my journey to attempt to understand the difficulty of dealing with anxiety and depression experienced by many in my own personal space as well as at Hope Chapel.  You can access that blog post here.

    May God’s peace keep us all,
