WILD ON THE PATH UPDATE JANUARY 2025

Wild on the path update January 2025

NEW THINGS IN STORE FOR 2025! 

WILD PATH FAMILY GATHERINGS. Coming in 2025! Path Family will be a gathering of those who are being led to walk a more engaged life on the Path of Jesus. We will be learning the ways of Jesus style living and then practicing His outflow works on a personal and practical level for the purpose of loving others with the Good News.

As we seek more on what this looks like for Wild on the Path; We want to invite you to pray about what this all looks like and welcome your suggestions. Here is what we are initially considering as we move forward.

• This is not another traditional church gathering! In fact we have know intention of using that word. It does however look ecclesial in relationship to having community that is inclusive of believers and non-believers alike!. 
• It is centered on enjoying our union with a loving Father and our relationship and love for Jesus that produces an appropriate outflow and rhythm in our lives.
• The infusion of His Holy Spirit to walk the wild path of Jesus with peace, hope, Joy, power, and strength to love others in the way He did.
• It looks Nomadic in moving out and going forward to reach those who haven't yet experienced Him so, it will never gather in one place for long periods of time. It will be a gathering of disciples meeting with a purpose to move outside of our traditional settings and extending and invitation to others to walk on the wild path of Jesus.
• WILD PATH FAMILY GATHERINGS would most-likely look like the second and fourth Saturday afternoons of each month. Times and places would be announced each week prior to our gatherings.

As you know by now. WILD ON THE PATH is dedicated to serving those who have not yet experienced a relationship with Christ and then to the Body of Christ. Our approach is outward focused ministry accomplished in very unique and unconventional ways. The ministries of Wild on the Path vary from • Soul Care • Spiritual Direction • Christian Coaching • and Servant Leadership Training. We do this through Spiritual Retreats and gatherings that usually incorporate a little bit of adventure. The very heart of our mission is our call to help folks get their whole heart back. It was created for those desiring to live from a full heart, pursue a life of passion, adventure, and freedom. We fight to awaken, restore, and initiate misfits and wanderers, and to call into action wounded warriors who have a whole lot of fight left in them! We believe that these are the folks that Jesus took interest in, thriving together in community, sharing story, mending nets, washing feet and doing the works that Jesus did as we follow Him. We find that this transforms the young and old alike. Men and women who bring restoration and freedom into their own lives, families and communities. Over the last year specifically we have been extending an invitation to walk with us, living on the wild path of Jesus. We are an off grid, out of the box group of followers who desire to love Jesus deeper and do his work!

So here are the main things God is calling us to do… First let us tell you about…
THE FORGE At its core... THE FORGE is a place for men to wrestle with God! To figure out how we are uniquely hardwired, and lead our families. It is a community of men sharing in their commonality, men who are discovering how to live from a wild heart for God, pursuing a life of passion, and challenging each other to be the best men we can be. We do this by walking with God together on a path to become the men and leaders that He created us to be. We do this through what we call…

THE FORGE - FIRESIDE CHALLENGES They meet on the 2nd and 4th Tuesday of every month at 6:30 pm. These are 90 minute challenges around the fire that allow us to take a deep dive's into becoming better men so that we become better leaders of our families and communities. Our FORGE Fireside Challenge is located at 5415 Hwy 238 in Jacksonville, OR unless otherwise announced! They are adventurous, nomadic and and very formative in nature!

SOUL RENOVATION  What is Soul Care and Renovation? Imagine a conversation where sharing your greatest fears and deepest longings is safe. Nobody is trying to fix you — instead, they listen to you with compassion and ask curious questions. 
Jesus is present. You feel seen, heard, and understood. Healing is happening.
Wild on the Path provides soul care friendship, through Jesus-centered care from a mentor and friend you can trust, along with these things we provide practical tools to enjoy your union with Jesus. We provide biblical guidance and the direction of the Holy Spirit for you to become everything you are intended to be without sacrificing your individuality, your creativity, or your unique design by God. If you feel isolated, alone, different, going nowhere, or that no one is there to hear you, then this is a great place to launch a wildly exciting experience on the Path of Jesus through Online Sessions on Zoom or even over Coffee!

THE SERVANT'S INITIATIVE provides a way to learn the rhythms of healthy leadership and become one. We provide training in servant leadership based on biblical teaching and the examples of Jesus, learning how to easily yoke with Jesus, and experience  an outflow of His rhythms of ministry and leadership in our lives.

VIZCON It has been said that… “Our best dreams are realized when we visit the many landscapes of our human exploration and discover the ones where we feel at home with our Creator”. The greatest church fathers and leaders dared to journey in this way! VIZCON is a series of Visual contemplations, conversational prayers, and meditations that help us to an Easily Yoke with Jesus and enjoy our union with Him.

WILD RESOURCES BLOG So Jesus responded, “I don’t teach my own ideas, but the truth revealed to me by the One who sent me. If you want to test my teachings and discover where I received them, first be passionate to do God’s will, and then you will be able to discern if my teachings are from the heart of God or from my own opinions. Jn 7:16-17
