In this time the enemy didn't win...NO he didn't! More ways have been birthed to have Church and to minister. This season has caused the Body of Christ to become more creative in their ways of sharing the Gospel...and this won't end...it's only the beginning.

A prophetic word I was given on May 21, 2020 is already starting to come to pass. This is so encouraging for the Church!
On May 21, 2020 I was about to fall asleep when I heard, "The Terrace." I woke the next day only to find out that a new TV outdoor system was released on May 21 (the same day I heard it) called "The Terrace." I knew God was confirming His word to me. Terrace means "A level paved area or platform next to a building; a patio or veranda."
The time of the terrace has come. The Church has moved outside the building, and is meeting on the land. I see this as a prophetic picture for the whole Body of Christ.

We have been pushed into the open air, out of our dimmly-lit buildings, into the glorious light of the sun. We take a big breath as we realize all is not lost but only the end of a chapter. We turn the page and find that the journey continues only in a new setting. This is where we are now, in a new setting – churches meeting outside.
We have moved to the terrace. A place where fresh air makes us come alive and the light gives us clear vision. Our bodies and spirits were born for this and it feels so right. The terrace is a place where people come together, rest, laugh and make memories. It's where the bond of unity is made between parents and children as they fellowship at the end of a long day. The terrace is family.
And so, here we are, the Church, gathering outside on the terrace. I believe we will see this become a new normal but only for a time.
Churches will design and build beautiful terraces to gather in the coming days and months to accommodate for the times in which we live. I believe it will bring the most glorious unity and love that we have so yearned for and unfortunately forgotten in many days past.
And it won't stop there. We will continue to... (continue reading)

Change is inevitable and it is here for all of us. I've heard so many stories from ministers and pastors about how this shut-in time has changed them from the "inside out"...and that is literally the message you'll discover as you'll read through this word from Jennifer Martin.
