You already know God loves you. But Steve Porter points out there's a difference between knowing that fact and actually receiving it. "The love of God is the fuel that transforms us, but this mere fact does not transform. True transformation occurs when we actually receive

We're starting a new series called Journey Through The Eden Creed.  The Eden Creed is a summary of what we believe about God, ourselves, and how transformation actually happens.  Each week, we'll walk through one tenet of the creed and explore what it means for how we live and

Next Tuesday, December 2nd, is Giving Tuesday worldwide.   And we’re setting a goal to raise $50,000!   Here’s why this matters: Stories like David’s, Melissa’s, Charlie’s, and so many others that we share on this page don’t happen without partners who believe in this work. When

What if there’s a life available to you that’s better than you could have imagined? A life where you’re deeply connected to God, to yourself, and to others. Where you’re not just believing the right things about God’s love, but actually experiencing it in a way that changes

There’s a way to live that most of us haven’t discovered yet.   A life where you’re deeply connected—to God, to yourself, to others. Where you’re not just going through the motions of faith, but actually experiencing the transformation you’ve been longing for.   The Journey Home

What if there’s a depth of connection to God, to yourself, and to others that you didn’t even know was available?   That’s what The Journey Home Retreat helps unlock.   This isn’t about quick fix platitudes or trying harder to be holy. It’s about discovering a way of living you

Last week: Transformation doesn’t happen through magic, earning, or willpower. It’s relational.   This week: Steve Porter helps us understand why it’s not just knowing more about God that transforms us, but experiencing his love in our daily lives.   The Grand Canyon analogy: You

Here’s something most of us have experienced:   Years of Bible study. Sermons. Theology. We know the facts about God’s love.   And yet—we’re not deeply transformed.   Steve Porter explains why: The facts haven’t become experientially real.   It’s like knowing everything about the

Paul wasn’t praying for people who didn’t know God loved them.   He was praying for Christians who already knew the theology. They’d heard it. They believed it.   But Paul wanted them to be rooted like a plant in soil. To feel in their bones that God is nourishing and dependable.

“We were created in the image of God, who is inherently relational. As such, the quality of our lives is the quality of our relationships.”   Last week we established that God is triune—eternally existing as a community of love. This week’s tenet follows naturally: if God is

We hope you're enjoying December as we celebrate this Advent season leading up to Christmas.   As we look ahead to the new year, we wanted to remind you that our next Journey Home retreat is January 26-28 at La Palmilla Resort in Glen Rose, Texas, just outside Dallas and next

"Lord, with all the things wrong in my life—all the oppression, pain, and evil—how do I know you're going to make this right?" The answer is: Just look at Jesus. He is the sign. The concrete sign of the movement of God among us. The kingdom that is coming and has already come.

Over the past three years, we've seen hundreds of Christian leaders have deep, meaningful encounters with God that have transformed how they see themselves, the world, and what they can receive from God. These leaders represent congregations all over the world—tens of thousands

As we close out 2025, my heart is full of gratitude for what God has been doing through Eden Project. Hundreds of Christian leaders have had deep encounters with God that transformed their lives. Pastors rediscovering joy. Leaders breaking free from performance-based faith.

Here's what I know about you: Your soul is hungry and thirsty for more of God. More of his love, more of his joy, more of his peace. If you want more of God, The Journey Home Retreat is designed for you. The Journey Home Retreat helps you embark on a fresh journey to living

Christian leaders, most leadership training adds more to your plate. Eden Lead does the opposite. Instead of teaching you new techniques or giving you another framework to implement, Eden Lead reshapes how you live, lead, and love from the inside out. It's a year-long journey

Most of us could pass a theology exam about God's love. But in our real lives—when we're stressed, when we've failed, when we're alone—we often don't experience that love personally. We experience a God who feels angry, distant, or critical. That gap between knowing and

So what actually happens at a Journey Home Retreat? You'll spend three days grounded in Scripture, focusing on two foundational truths: God is way better than you believe Him to be, and you are more beloved than you've dared to dream. But here's what makes a Journey Home

A Journey Home Retreat is for two groups of people. The first: you're stuck in your spiritual life and can't figure out why. Most of us are stuck because we don't actually believe God is as good as Scripture says, or we don't believe we're as beloved as he says we are. A Journey
