Empowerment Introduction

Empowerment is a word found everywhere from newspaper articles to webinars to self-help books. Is empowerment a feeling, a force, or an action? From where is it drawn and how is it created? These stories of empowerment vary widely and include literary excerpts, Biblical texts, and nature-sourced photographs. Power is. It cannot always be explained or understood, but it can be recognized and accessed by those seeking a Christian faith that is relevant, rich and vital. The tender place of empowerment inspires courage, action, and strong intention. The mystery of God’s Presence can transfer to us– indeed it can become us– infusing our lives with power in delightfully unexpected ways.
