This Is My Call

Posted by | Devotions | No Comments

Free Gift for you for February 2021 from YWAM Hollywood!

We Are YWAM

YWAM International Ministry has been around now for over 60 years. I was honored to be asked to produce the opening for our International YWAM 50th Anniversary Celebration in Denver Colorado in 2010. I wrote a song that we performed live at the celebration.

As stated in the song, Ywam’s international motto is to “Know God and Make Him Known.” Our courses here at YWAM Hollywood help you to do just that.

Our Ministry Courses help you to Know God and discover who He created you to be so that you can do your destiny.

Our Creative Courses help give you the skills and abilities to Make God Known through the arts, media, and entertainment.

Our Leadership Courses help you to successfully do your destiny and equip you to lead and communicate with confidence so that others can Know God and Make Him Known. You can sign up for a class today!

For February 2021, our free gift is your access to the video filmed of the song, “We Are YWAM.” You can see the remastered Music Video, also known as “This Is My Call” here http://www.destinycenter.com/Watch/TV_Video?product_id=164

Corrie ten Boom

Posted by | Devotions | No Comments

Your life is critical to God’s plan. The battle of good vs evil is real. You were created by God to change the world. We have continued to pray about how we can help you to live the epic life that God created you to live. One way we want to help is to make available to you stories of inspiration of those who have gone before us. People who have been successful in fighting the battle of good vs evil. Corrie ten Boom is one of those Superstar saints. We wanted to make this available again this month!


This MONTH’s FREE GIFT to you is a free ebook from our “Superstar Saints Series.” It is a free ebook of the inspiring story of one of our featured guest teachers, Corrie ten Boom. Corrie’s life is an inspiration to many. Together with her family, Corrie stood up against the Nazi regime in Holland during World War II. She was the only one from her family who survived being imprisoned in a concentration camp. Her powerful teachings on the love of God, prayer, and forgiveness are included as part of our “10 Basic Daily Disciplines of Your Christian Walk” course.

Your free ebook will be available for you for FREE until November 23, 2020. We pray this short ebook, about Corrie’s life, will be an encouragement to you during these uncertain times.

Know that we love you, we believe in you, and we are praying for you!

Jesus said, “Go!”

Posted by | Arts, Bible Study, Destiny, Discipleship, Media & Entertainment, Missions, Training, Worship & the Arts | No Comments

Jesus said, “Go!”

It is called “The Great Commission.” Let’s read Matthew 28:18-20: Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to Me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey all that I have commanded you.”

It is hard to ‘go’ when you are forced to ‘stay home.’ The whole situation with the recent pandemic has shown us all just how quickly our ability to ‘GO’ can be stopped. It is an unusual time for missions, for sure. That’s why we have been focusing on how we can help people succeed – wherever they are! YWAM Hollywood has been praying, during these unprecedented times, about how we can help you to live the EPIC life that God created you to live.

We have come up with a few significant ways to help you fulfill your destiny no matter where you are. YWAM Hollywood has been working on being global and mobile for the last several years. Now we are taking it to another level for you!

New online YWAM Hollywood School to open this fall!

Our new online YWAM Hollywood School is going to open this fall! We are offering courses in three areas: Ministry Courses, Leadership Courses, and Creative Courses. It is wonderful to see a vision fulfilled – even if it is just the beginning!

More information to come soon!

God has a plan for this generation!

Posted by | Arts, Bible Study, Destiny, Discipleship, Media & Entertainment, Missions, Training, Worship & the Arts | No Comments

God has a plan for this generation! And, you are key to God’s plan! We are living in unprecedented times. Many YWAM schools worldwide have been cancelled. YWAM Hollywood has been praying, during this unusual season, about how we can help you to live the EPIC life that God created you to live.

We have come up with a few significant ways to help. This month I’d like to share with you one way we are looking to help you fulfill your destiny no matter where you are.

New online YWAM Hollywood School to open this fall!

University of the Nations Online Training –  YWAM’s University of the Nations began allowing online courses to be approved for credit through UofN a few years ago and we felt that, this year, we needed to focus on implementing an online curriculum to be offered through YWAM Hollywood.

We are spending this summer setting up an online school and developing courses to help you be all you are created to be. We currently have 7 courses that have been approved for College Credit with the University of the Nations. We have plans to add many more classes over the next few years, and we have several teachers that are considering or developing courses.

We have been working on this vision for over 20 years and have been actively developing an online curriculum for the last 5 years. It is a huge project and we are thrilled to share the exciting news that the online classes will be available this fall!

Stay tuned for more information!

Kobe Bryant – One in a million…

One million people died this past week. One of them was Kobe Bryant.

 

When a celebrity dies we notice. We didn’t notice that the other one million died… Unless one of them was a relative or friend.

A celebrity has died too young and we notice. And we do need to notice. Because, when the world stops and notices that someone died a tragic death, it gives us each an opportunity to pause to reflect on our choices, and to remind ourselves what is really important in life, and in death.

And what is really important in life, and in death? Time with those you love.

Time with God.

Time with family and friends that you love.

It is all about love.

dream big

It is a new year.

SO, let me begin by asking you, “What is your dream?”

Your big dream.

What is it that you want to accomplish in your life? What is it that you care about? What is your passion? What do you want to do? Who do you want to be? What is your big dream? How can it ever be accomplished?

Pulitzer-winning writer Katherine Anne Porter observed: “I am appalled at the aimlessness of most people’s lives. Fifty percent don’t pay any attention to where they are going; forty percent are undecided and will go in any direction. Only ten percent know what they want and some of them don’t even move toward it.”

Will you decide that this year you will be focused and not aimless?

The new year means a new start. What will you do differently this year to move toward making your dream a reality?

That is what my book “Dream Big – Start Small – Start Now” is all about.

I have developed some simple tools that can help you get more clarity and stay focused in your life. Throughout the book, I use a simple tool I developed that I call the “Focus Funnel” to help you get clarity on your Big Dream, and stay focused as you Start Small, and Start Now with the tasks that need to be completed to make your dream a reality.

Here is a story about a conversation I have had several times through the years…

The seminar was starting in about thirty minutes. I was setting up my computer, and getting ready for the lecture portion of the class. One of the women registered as a student for the training came up to me.

“I want to write a book,” she said. “It has always been my dream.”

“Then you need to write your book,” I said. “You can do it.”

“But, I never have the time,” she said. “I have a job and a family. I never have time to get away and write my novel.”

“You don’t need to get away to write it,” I said. “You need to start on it now, where you are.”

“But, I would never have time,” she said.

“If you write one page a day, you’ll have 365 pages by this time next year,” I said. “That is plenty of pages for a book.”

“Wow,” she replied. “I never thought of it like that.”

“So, my assignment to you is this,” I said. “Write one page today. Start now. Today. You have a few minutes before we start the class. Go get some paper, and begin writing it now. Then, write some more during lunch, and during our dinner break. By the end of today, you should have one page.”

“It can’t be that simple,” she said.

“I have written over 50 books,” I replied. “It is just that simple. Start small, and start now.”

She did. By the end of the day she had a title, an outline, and three pages written for her book.

Dream Big: Write a book

Start Small: Write one page

Start Now: Immediately. Today. Now!

DreamBig-_frontcoverMake this year the year your dreams come true! 

If you can dream it, you can do it.
