ReCreated is a place people come to hear stories of redemption from Christ followers. The stories told are not white washed or polished. No attempt is made to make the teller the hero. Instead, we point the listeners to the one in whom all hope is found in victory is claimed.

Gina tells us what happens when you set out do everything the way you thought you should and things still don't work out as planned. We talk about why divorce isn't the “worst sin” and why it is so important that we don't rely on someone else's interpretation of the word but, instead search it for ourselves. 2 Corinthians 12:9-11 New International Version (NIV)9 But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me. 10 That is why, for Christ's sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong.
