Over the past few months, I've been busy putting together some promotional materials regarding some of my writing and speaking. The following video clip is a part of those resources. We recorded it this weekend, and I wanted to share it with you as a way of letting you know a bit of what's going on in my life and some of the current message God is writing across my soul.
Fair warning: the video is 14 minutes in length. If you'd rather take I pass, I understand. Thanks for standing alongside of me as I continue along the road of faith. And for my new friends at Little River, you rocked my world ... again. Truly, God is at work in your church and community. Keep to it.
peace for the journey,

Wow, sweet sister. Preach on the gospel of peace, praise God . He is peace, He is the great I am. Thanks for blessing me with this.
You are a blessing...
Funny and inspiring! He WILL, praise God!!!
This was wonderful Elaine. Thanks for the reminder that kingdom (gospel living) comes out our fingertips and takes place in the trenches. We are indeed a blessed people aren't we?! Thank you for being the gospel.
Blessings,
Lori
Thank you for the reminder that we need to look for Kingdom opportunities in our every day contacts and activities. Blessings on you today. Donna
POWERFUL! What a passionate, gifted teacher you are! Thanks for sharing!!
I listened to the entire message and my soul was blessed. Thank you for the reminder that when I feel inadequate to teach those 10th Grade Girls, that I AM is with me. What a mighty God we serve!!!! Yes, He is soooo much better!

Your gifts and graces were so evident in Little River - how blessed we are to have you full time! You are the best honey.
love you,
Billy
Preach it, Mama!! Awesome Elaine! So glad that your time at the beach went well! I thought about you this weekend--we were in Charleston.
So...I carry the kingdom of God in me while looking frantically for an empty line and a happy cashier in Wal-Mart? YOu have convicted me, sweet friend!
Love you!

Praise the Living GOD. That was awesome! I just wish I could understand all the audio. When you turned your back to the camera and talked softer I couldn't hear what you said. However, I got the message. AMEN!
I am the Kingdom of God - I truly LOVE that!
Boo-yah!!! That. Rocked.
No wonder you walked out of there in the full awareness that you had been used by God. Incredible stuff. So glad you're in ministry, Elaine. I have a feeling you're going to be a very busy lady. ;-) This is going to be exciting to watch.
(And is that your sweet husband laughing in the background after you talked about "preachin'"?)
This video as part of a promotional tool is a great idea. Thanks for sharing. wb
Elaine,
How wonderful! You are such a natural, and your love for Jesus just shines through!
I love the way you keep contact with the audience and how you can speak without notes. That's really well done, and it let's the audience know that if you can remember it, then they can remember it!
Way to go!
And thanks for stopping by my speaking blog to show how your putting these things into practice!
You are just precious Elaine!
I enjoyed watching you share with such passion.
I love the way you love Jesus!
Thanks for being such a blessing to the body of Christ!
PS Would you like for me to get you anything this Friday when Alicia comes to our church? I would be honored.
I have got to learn how to do a video!
You are a beautiful woman of God Elaine. What a blessing you are!
I didn't listen to the whole thing, Elaine, but I listened long enough to begin to think you're a preacher :) And then I jumped forward in the message and heard you say that you're not a preacher :) Maybe we should take a vote on that! :) Be blessed in all your speaking opportunities!
I loved seeing you in action dear one! You tickle me - you are so into what you are saying - believing *it* with every ounce of you! What a delight to hear and see you. You reminded me of Beth Moore. I'm so glad you posted this. Your rags to riches thrift store story was very touching. I've been thinking about the kingdom of God lately Elaine and found sweet encouragement in your words.
Blessings to you!
Yes - Kingdom work happens on the soil of everyday life! I pray that it is happening where you are today and where each of those women who listened THAT day live TOday! And here, also, in NE Indiana. People need the Lord!
I loved this clip of you. So much energy and passion in your words.
Amen and amen!! "You cannot separate the I AM of God from the 'I wills' of God" - powerful words!! Love you Elaine...
Preach on sister Elaine! I loved hearing you as always as the LORD speaks through you to fine tune the rest of us.
How do you add the opening and closing words to your video Sister? I'd love to do that with mine.
You are such an encouragement to my heart in ways I can't express. I love your fire! It's HIM -- the fire of the HOLY SPIRIT within you!
I love you, I support you and I'm praying for you.
Sweet friend, I finally had some moments to sit and listen to God's message through you! What a gift He has given you, my sister. I had some great belly laughs, esp. when you were talking about how you got the compliment about speaking and then you were'nt asked to speak again for awhile. LOL, that is exactly the types of things that happen to me. ;) Also I love "Kingdom work happens on the everyday soil of your lives." If all of us were to truly grasp that and live it out, our would would be so incredibly different.
Whether or not you ever speak in front of a group again (and I've no doubt you will be A LOT0, you speak into me regularly as a sister in Christ.
Much love,
lalee
Wow! Elaine, I have watched your vlogs before. But I truly loved watching and listening to you teach. It was an awesome lesson of learning that "the kingdom of God is only going to come through us" Allowing Him to reign in our lives is what makes life worth living in whatever capacity or in which ever way He so desires. Some times, we can get ahead of God and miss out on so many opportunities for His Kingdom to reign in the small circumstances of our lives too. You did awesome!! I am sure many people's lives were touched through this message.
God Bless as He continues to open doors for you to use the gift He has given you!
