SUMMARY:Contend + Connect (via Zoom) | DREAMS DEFERRED ARE NOT DREAMS DENIED with Lauren Jacobs (SOUTH AFRICA)
DESCRIPTION:Contend + Connect (via Zoom)\nPraying His Good News into faith\, hope\, and love—in us and through us. \nThursdays | 9:00–9:40 AM (MT)Following Seeds Devotions + Community Prayer | 8:30–9:00 AM \n🟡 Come for one or both (same Zoom link for ease)👉 CLICK HERE TO JOIN via Zoom \n\n🕘 9:00–9:40 AM (MT) | Contend + Connect\nA deep space of story\, Scripture\, and Spirit-led prayer as we contend together for what God is doing—in our lives\, our communities\, and across the world. \nGod-stories that stir faith.Love that cannot be stopped. \nThe words of Jesus woven into everyday life—fueling us (and the world)with faith\, hope\, and love. \nHere’s what—and who!—to expect this week ✨(buckle up\, buttercup!) \nThis week\, I’m so excited to share our soul sister\, Lauren Jacobs — a talented\, multi-award-winning author\, radio journalist\, theologian\, and advocate. Through her work as a specialist in the Old Testament and the Ancient Near East\, Lauren has taught across continents and written nearly 500 articles focused on women in the Bible. She is also the author of five books and has spent years courageously reporting on issues including gendercide in China\, abuse against women\, faith and abuse\, female ritual servitude\, and more. \nLauren has contributed to more than two dozen international publications and was a TEDx Cape Town speaker in 2018\, where her talk\, “A Forgotten History: Where Are Our Women?”\, sparked meaningful global conversation. Today\, she serves on several advocacy and historical organization boards and continues to help people engage Scripture\, history\, justice\, and the heart of God in transformative ways. \nAnd part of what Lauren senses God stirring for this gathering is this:\n“Dreams deferred are not dreams denied.” \nTogether\, we’ll lean into those places where the trenches of life\, grief\, survival\, disappointment\, exhaustion\, or heartbreak can make dreams feel forgotten\, buried\, or almost dead. We’ll make space to contend for hope again. For renewal. For resurrection life. For the gentle but persistent call of God that still whispers beneath the survival-mode noise:\nThere is more.\nDo not give up.\nThe story is not over. \nAs we hear these stories and reflections together\, we’re reminded that what God is doing around the world opens the door for us not only to pray\, contend\, and cheerlead\, but perhaps to sense His nudge to step in and be part of this incredible movement of love\, justice\, and good news ’round the world! \nCheck out Seeds Devotions + Community Prayer on the calendar for more about this beautyFULL gathering. \n\nThree Things to Know\n1️⃣ All are welcome.Friends\, family\, neighbors—ANYone seeking peace\, hope\, and connection. \n2️⃣ Come as you are.This isn’t polished or perfect—it’s real\, Spirit-led\, and rooted in everyday life with Jesus. \n3️⃣ Stay as you’re able.Join for a few minutes or the full time. Come for one gathering or both—your presence matters. \n\n🎥 Want to explore past gatherings?View our Contend + Connect + Devotions + Prayer playlists on YouTube:👉 YouTube Playlist \n\nROOTED in Jesus \nxo\, -Sarah DT + the Seeds Fam
