When we encounter God, it transforms our lives.

THE BIBLE IS A GIFT FROM GOD ABOUT GOD.

Within its pages, the Lord shares beautiful truth about who He is and how we should live in light of that truth. Every time we read the Bible, we have an opportunity to encounter God for ourselves. But far too often, we depend on others for truth that is easily accessible with the right tools. 

The Restored Orchard equips believers with encouragement and resources to navigate the Bible while gaining a deeper understanding of its teachings and timeless truths.

Advent Reflections – Even in the Waiting – Day 2

Hanging a green and white christmas wreath
I have been lost a time or two. Usually, because I got distracted and wandered off the intended path. Whatever sparked my interest was enough to cause me to lose sight of my intended destination. In this passage, we find Jesus as a child, so focused on His Father’s business that he wanders off from his parents. In my own life, I’ve found that I’m not prone to wander towards my father’s business….but away from it.

Advent Reflections – Even in the Waiting – Day 1

Christmas tree with ornaments
As a child, nothing compared to the excitement of being able to sit up and waiting for New Year's Day. We’d sit up as long as possible on December 31st awaiting the coming year. We knew what was coming, yet we had to watch the clock or we’d miss it. In this passage, Jesus reminds us of the signs before his second coming. He teaches that in order to recognize the second coming, we must stay alert. These verses prompt us to be mindful of the state of our hearts and to stay ready at all times for the coming day of God’s judgment. REFLECTION - Do you find yourself growing weary in your walk with the Lord? How can you stay encouraged and ready for Jesus Christ's second coming?

Advent Reflections – Even in the Waiting

I know that most people are in the midst of the hustle and bustle of the season, but December always reminds me to slow down and reflect. It's something about the cold weather that forces me to cozy up and sit still... I believe the stillness opens

On a Personal Note – Finish Well

gray soil pathway between grass
With a little over 30 days left in the year, it’s easy to put a pin in new ideas or projects until the new year. As tempting as enjoying the pause may be, there are some things that we have been called to do that require our action now. Spiritual callings require our steadfast attention, not temporary devotion when our schedules allow. In this season, the Lord has been challenging me to finish well. In a culture that values purpose and spiritual gifting, it’s interesting how quickly we toss them to the side when we’re fatigued or distracted. We yield to the flesh instead of the Holy Spirit's guidance. We abandon how we show up out of convenience; missing opportunities to share the Gospel or be the hands and feet of Christ. Simply put, we fail to finish well.

On a Personal Note – Being Seen: A Reflection on Hagar

fall colors
El Roi. The God who sees me. When we talk about Hagar, we often refer to this tender exchange. This exact moment in the wilderness when she encounters God... when she accepts correction and instruction to return to a tense situation... when she receives the promise concerning the son in her womb... when she recognizes that she is seen and known by name. Yes, this is a pivotal moment, marked with such a significant name, and as I began to walk through Hagar's story, to be seen, is so much deeper than watching someone visually.
