The Very Presence of God with us

​Not wanting to let the story of Christmas get put away too soon, we take a look at the people who encountered the very presence of God when Jesus was born. These are their "God with us" moments.

​This Same Jesus

​ I had the chance to start off our Acts series and my hope for this new study at Redeemer was to challenge us to look at the stories of Acts with fresh eyes and see that this same Jesus who forever changed a group of about 30-40 people with his presence, This same Jesus would like to do the same kind of forever change in us.

Upside-Down Leadership
Leading by Lifting others UP

This workshop demonstrates the impact of a leadership ethos that builds empowered teams, equips them for release and then stays out of the spotlight to really let the team lead. It's a leadership model of inspiration and multiplication.

Denise has spent 20 years building teams of leaders, and connecting people to roles that match their gifting. This relational, less leader centric approach has always yielded growth in numbers and people. It truly allows you to lead by lifting others up.

What Matters Most

The work God does in our hearts is not a one and done effort, but a continual process of renovation that dares us to trust his love for purpose and renewal. 

You're Welcome

Welcome is a powerful experience. It transforms misunderstanding and prejudice. It paves a way for relationship and redemption.
