I now have a newsletter on Substack called Flow to Fruitful, and I want to share a bit of the backstory.

My journey to Flow to Fruitful began more than 15 years ago as I navigated a dry season after the loss of my father. I felt drained and disillusioned. One Sunday, my pastor preached from Ezekiel 37 and the valley of the dry bones opened up in a way that I had never experienced. As I sat with the text and continued reading further, I was ushered into this vision based on Ezekiel 47:12.

^“Fruit trees of all kinds will grow on both banks of the river. Their leaves will not wither, nor will their fruit fail. Every month they will bear fruit, because the water from the sanctuary flows to them. Their fruit will serve for food and their leaves for healing.”

At that time, God spoke to me in the language of rivers, which became a metaphor for my life. Rivers flow in a focused way to bring refreshing and fruitfulness to places that would otherwise be dry, desolate and left for dead. I realized that a life and ministry that is grounded in the presence and power of Christ requires intentional spiritual renewal.
