Coming up on my church's Worship Night this Friday, I discuss the importance and value of worship a a believer and as a group of believer's.The Midwest is a melting pot of Christian tradition and denominationalism. So many of us are accustomed to worship looking one way or another and anything unfamiliar to our familiar way seems weird or even- to some- dangerous or somehow offensive to God.What if worship is something more than you're aware of? What if it isn't limited to your understanding or tradition, but that your understanding or your tradition may be limiting your opportunity to interact with God?What if?Join us at Jordan Creek Church in Solon, Iowa this Friday, June 27th at 7pm for a night of worship and prayer as we seek and honor Jesus together in thanksgiving and praise.

Join me this episode as I share the backstory of my new single, "Pain"- releasing 4/11/2025.All human beings are born into a world that they will experience pain in some form- physical, emotional, psychological, spiritual, etc. It is a common condition we can all relate to, we are all familiar with. I wrote and arranged this song as a unifying touchpoint for all of us- no matter what you believe or don't. Pain- while it can bring us to the end of ourselves- often becomes the doorway and entry point for Jesus.Check out all music platforms to follow ME- Lyndsie Schnoor- and listen to Pain 4/11/25

It's a NEW year and I have a NEW SONG that is releasing in the next few weeks! Psalm 24 has been a segment of scripture that has captivated me over the years- this episode brings you into my journey of writing the song Lift Up Your Heads and the exciting process the Lord brought it through these last few weeks. You can PREORDER today on ITunes and access everywhere on January 17, 2025!! Get ready for a year of expectation and the faithfulness of God- He truly is exceedingly, abundantly better that you can ever ask or imagine!

Have you ever asked God for wisdom or direction in your life? I wonder how many of us have asked for confirmation to go to "the right or the left" (Isaiah 30:21); but we asked before we got to the intersection that God was waiting to direct us at. These past few months of my life, I've learned to keep moving forward until I reach those specific intersections that God is already at- ready and waiting to direct me. I've found that I desire an intersection to occur when it's convenient and makes sense with my trajectory that I have planned- but if I'm willing to keep moving forward, He is faithful to stop me and show me the way WHEN the timing is right. This is my Trust Fall season- anyone else? You want to make forward progress, but in actuality God desires you to fall back into His capable, wise arms. Maybe it's time to proceed until God brings you to the intersection. Maybe doing exactly what you're doing is what God wants right now because HE is lining things up you're not aware of. Maybe strengthening some areas in your life is necessary BEFORE the intersection. Awakening Creativity Conference LINK The Power of Music Intensive with ME! LINK

The local church is not an obligation nor a place meant to appease you. It is an opportunity to serve a family because God grafted you into His. -Lyndsie Schnoor In this present time, we are watching the Lord sift and shift through our culture. We have watched more than handful of prominent leaders step down or be ushered out of their positions (both secular and sacred). I have watched this happen over the last few years at the state and community levels as well. God is building a firm foundation for the Church to have the capacity to sustain the move that is going to take place. Jesus, Himself, instituted offices to assist in the structure that would allow us to mature well. Ephesians 4:11-16 Many believers will say that the Church is not relegated to the houses of worship that many of us serve- I don't disagree. What I do challenge these with is to explain God's plan and desire to equip that Church outside of community that is laid out by Jesus. These communities and families of worship amongst His greater plan for the Big "C" Church exist to equip, empower, encourage, edify and exhort believers within the healthy context and infrastructure of relationship. How will you grow, be held responsible, be corrected or learn to live alongside those you don't always agree with outside of intentional community? You won't. I think that we should be asking ourselves why we "go" to church? I think it's time for some hard conversations, some soul searching moments on all of our behalves and a time for the local church to become the families that God intended them to be to raise mature believers amongst themselves. THAT is how the CHURCH- the Victorious Bride will be realized. Healthy families create healthy communities and healthy communities change culture. First the natural, then the spiritual 1 Corinthians 15:46. So, believer, why are you at your church- to serve or to be served?

Esther 4:14 Have you considered the intentionality and purpose to YOU being on this Earth specifically at THIS time? Our world needs a light switch right now. I've never been more excited and in need of wisdom for what it is to be that "light" right now- #amiright? The world connects Christianity with a hell or heaven philosophy- not a HERE AND NOW. Yet- the Christian life is not a solution after death, but an empowered lifestyle NOW that displays God through the power of His Spirit; drawing His people to His son in order that they may know Him.....and YOU have a part to play in this scene of history exactly where you are RIGHT NOW. Are you in Iowa?? Join me at the Empowered Conference hosted by LifeChurch to be equipped and activated in your identity in Jesus this October!

Being in hard circumstances- even when they last for what seems forever- may not always be an indicator of you doing something wrong; or even inefficiently. If God is always reworking the outcomes of all of the world's decisions ultimately for His good and your good (Romans 8:28)...There just may be some patience involved on our end if we come to that "good" awareness before the rest of the world around us. What if your hard circumstances are shaping you to be exactly who you need to be for the next step? What if these current times are to reveal the places in your heart that need to be in pursuit of God rather than pursuit of your own desires? It's been a few weeks- again- and I am so interested to put this in your headspace as we challenge ourselves to have a Kingdom perspective on what God is up to right now. **There is one segment that I suggest that not all of us be concerned with 'spiritual warfare'. I want to clarify that we all move in the fullness of God, but that some of us may operate with a greater degree of favor and grace in this area** Scripture referenced: Hosea and specifically Hosea 4:6, Hosea 4:12, Matthew 26:69-74, John 21:15-19, John 17:3, Revelation 1:6

Debriefing after the last few weeks following the Dream Conference. What does it look like to recover from seasons of accomplishment? Perhaps taking the perspective that the physical, emotional and spiritual responses from these points do not necessarily point to fatigue, but to points of increased capacity is helpful as we continue our pursuit of Jesus in the areas we have been designed to demonstrate Him best... Maybe your place of tiredness doesn't require rest, it requires pushing through... Maybe God is building your capacity so that you are prepared for what is to come. Maybe.

In this Episode, Dr. Michael Peters with Divine Health Coaching and IHOPE House of Prayer joins to discuss the upcoming Dream Conference 2024, his thoughts on the role of dreams and sleep in the human life as well as some of his pursuit and testimony with Jesus and the way his relationship with Christ has made God known in his sphere of influence. Dr. Peters has been in the medical and healing arena since 1987. He is a respected leader in his field and community and has seen a large number of people find healing and freedom through a wide variety of programs and curriculum that he has tailored with Godly principles and practicals. Dr. Peters and his wife Mary Jo are passionate about the nature of our design as triune beings (body, mind and spirit) and as a result of their own powerful testimony have developed Divine Healing coaching to aid others in their journeys through Depression and other medical ailments.

Dream Conference 2024 Tickets Here! Let's take it even one more step back... We've started to talk about the conversations surrounding Why we dream, but let's introduce the question Why do we sleep? I would propose that many of the answers and unveiling of the mysteries of dreams starts with the design of sleep. Why we do it, how it benefits us, what our organs and systems do during this activity, etc are all avenues that when taken; shed light on our pursuit of dreams. Dr. Matthew Walker, author of Why We Sleep lays an incredible scientific foundation through his study and examination of sleep over the decades. Taking a look at how we were designed to sleep from both a biblical and analytical perspective can shed light on some interesting ideas as well as suggest additional ideas pertaining to how God uses dreams to communicate. Pressing in and learning more about the activity of our brains makes this even more exciting!
