This Sunday Kelley Schubert, one of our Elders here at Resonate, delivers a message on how God has “divine blueprints” for each of our lives.

Throughout Scripture, God’s pattern for preparing His people for supernatural harvest is clear: repentance, cleansing, and outpouring. As we prepare for growth and harvest in our church and city, it is essential that our hearts are prepared first—ready to receive, hold, and steward what God desires to pour out. Without this inner preparation, even the greatest outward success can break us.
