    Today Laura Leigh concludes the summer season, “Hope in the Light”, with an encouraging word to carry us into the fall season. In this episode she reads the last day of the Rise Collective study, “Hope & Holiness- a Study through the Book of 1 Peter”, bringing scripture to the forefront of this season’s end, and giving you a parting word of the living hope in the name of Jesus.  She closes it out with a prayer over you and this generation to step into their identity as children of the most high God- living lives of holiness in Him. “May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.” -Romans 15:13 Hope & Holiness - Bible Study Join the Rise Collective Women Online Community Subscribe to the Email List Survey Link

    S4E7 In the Image of The Creator with Corinne Caraway

    In this episode we are talking about all things creativity and art—from the theology of God as a creator to the Holy Spirit empowering artists. Today I sit down with my friend Corinne who is a talented writer and integral member of our church. We discuss the darkness that Jesus delivered her from into His light, the impact of teachers and mentorship in encouraging our gifts, and the Renaissance community here in NYC. Corinne shares about the journey of the Renaissance community, the beauty she has seen in the artists there, and what it looks like to be a redemptive artist in your work even if it’s not explicitly about faith. Laura Leigh and Corinne describe times they’ve been encouraged by the Holy Spirit working through the hands of artists they know, and Corinne encourages us all to be creative—no matter our professions.
