Are you looking for your Calling/Purpose/Niche in life? Do you think you need to serve others better? Do you wonder if there is a God and if so, what does that mean exactly? Rekindling sets out to walk with you as you answer those questions. We are a Bible-based, Christ-loving educational non-profit that sets out to rekindle people\'s passions for God, for everyone else in the world and for their own life. Come share the adventure of adventures with us!

1. And herewith maybe we shall rekindle hearts to the valour of old in a world that grows chill… Rekindling …as we stir up the gracious gift of God- the inner fire that is within us. *Tolkien, “The Silmarillion”; St.Paul, 2 Timothy 1:6 AMP

2. Rekindling’s “3-fold Passion”… -rekindling our passion for the Creator of the Universe- leaning heavily on God and dancing with Him through life -rekindling our passion for everyone else- listening to, encouraging & impacting others -rekindling our passion for ourselves - living above our circumstances & pursuing our God-given Niche in life. *Mark 12:29-31, Romans 12:11, 1 John 3:18, Ephesians 4:1

3. Rekindling’s “The 7-Stage Journey”:

4. The Atheist: “There absolutely is no God.” He/she chooses to remain in the physical valley, denying the existence of supernatural waters. The Agnostic: “Maybe there is a God, maybe there isn’t. I don’t know and/or I don’t care.” He/she feels there may be something more out there, but it isn’t worth the effort to fully explore the possibilities.” The Seeker: “I do think God exists, but I’m just not sure which religious boat best sails the spiritual waters.” He/she chooses to remain on the shore until a final decision can be committed to.

5. The Believer: “I rely on Jesus Christ as the Boat Captain that will get me to Heaven.” He/she gives credit to Christ for buying their ticket into Heaven and relies on Him to get through this life. The Disciple: “I want to pursue Christ wherever He is, including the storms of life.” He/she chooses to fit themselves into Christ’s Plans rather than fitting Christ into their plans. The Ambassador: “I want to reflect Christ in everything that I do.” He/she pursues their God-given calling in life, giving Christ complete credit for it.

6. The Co-Heir: “I am reigning with Christ forever!” He/she reaps the rewards of Heaven alongside Christ for the eternity of eternities! Whatever stage someone is at, we here at Rekindling want to encourage and equip him or her to get at least one stage to the right.

7. "If you want to build a ship, don't go out and collect a bunch of people and assign them tasks; rather teach them to long for the endless immensity of the sea." -Antoine de Saint-Exupery Get people passionate about the ocean and they will *want* to build the best boat possible to explore. In the same way, rather than focus solely on the details of building the Church, we first and foremost explore the majesty of God and then let that awe lead us into the edification of the Church.

8. For the Atheist, Agnostic and Seeker: “Seeing the Unseen” – Learning four Perspective Lenses with which to view the world: -Eternal-Internal-External -Be-Do-Have -the 7-Fold Life -the Spectrum “Know thy World” – Looking at the Physical, Emotional, Intellectual & Supernatural evidence found throughout the world and in life that point to the existence of a Creator God, Who authored the Holy Bible (men could not have penned it on their own).

9. For the Believer: “Knowing God’s Desires” – Understanding the Five Methods God uses to show us His Will for us in any given situation: Scriptures, Prayer, Others, Circumstances & Silence. “Enmeshing yourself in Scriptures” – Getting in deep in the Scriptures and truly becoming in awe of what It offers: encouragement, education and edification. “The Names & Characteristics of Elohim” – Researching the 200+ Names, Titles & Descriptions of who God is, learning to not put Him in a box.

10. For the Believer: (cont’d) “What the Ancient of Days wants most to give us” – Learning what it means to have a complete relationship with God. “What the Ancient of Days expects most from us” – Giving Him our Adoration, Affection, Attention & Action as we Expand & Edify His Kingdom. “Who’s Who in the Kingdom?” – Exploring the relationships between the King, His Citizens, the Lost and the Enemy.

11. For the Disciple, Ambassador & future Co-Heir: “Walking in the Spirit” – Living above your circumstances and receiving the abundant life promised by your King Jesus. “Flight, Fight or Persevere” - In bad situations, knowing when to flee, when to resist & overcome and when to humbly endure. “Know Thyself” – Exploring your Beliefs, Values, Timeline, Methods & Magnets, Gifts, Challenges, Dreams, Purpose and Path to determine for what Calling God has hand-crafted you. “Know thy Destiny” – Studying and getting passionate about what the Scriptures teach concerning Heaven, walking and talking with the LORD Almighty on the streets of gold one day!
