Hope in Exile
Graduation season often turns Jeremiah 29:11 into a promise of personal success and a bright future. But God's famous words were originally spoken to people living in exile. In this bridge from The Island Series to the Flourishing Series, discover how biblical prosperity is less about comfort and achievement and more about God's presence, restoration, and abundance in the midst of life's uncertain seasons.
The Island Series: Posture
The climate of the soul is shaped not by distance from God but by the direction of the heart. Drawing from the windward and leeward landscapes of Oʻahu, this reflection explores how posture, the way we face God, determines whether our inner life becomes lush or dry. Through the parable of the Prodigal Son and the imagery of The Island, we see how turning toward the Spirit brings warmth, grace, and renewal. Posture is the pivot that transforms famine into feast.
The Island Series: An Introduction
Some lives feel lush and full of God’s presence; others feel dry or distant. Same Father, different climate. This introduction explores The Island metaphor, the parable of the Prodigal Son, and the Four P’s - Position, Proximity, Posture, and Provision - as guideposts for biblical flourishing.
