The newlyweds \u2014 Alexia and Winston, fresh from Nashville \u2014 along with Carl and me, are here helping Larry and Staci prepare for several couples arriving from near and far this weekend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Each couple will settle into one of four tiny homes scattered around the ranch. Small spaces, big comfort. Places designed for respite, encouragement, and power-packed teaching.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Meanwhile, inside the newly finished Peace Cabin, there was a whole lot of joyful chaos.

Staci, Alexia, and I have been working like a cheerful decorating brigade. Curtains up. Cabinets filled. Furniture assembled. Alexia tackled the new sofa and nightstands like a seasoned professional while we transformed the cabin into what feels like a cozy French cottage.

<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nWho knew sanctification sometimes includes hammers, screws, curtain rods, and a furniture assembly?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The guys were finishing the well house while Carl \u2014 my ever-patient chauffeur and unofficial ranch overseer \u2014 keeps an eye on it all. New roads. Fresh concrete drives. Newly planted trees stretching toward the Texas sky.

It feels like watching faith take root.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThe righteous will flourish like a palm tree — planted in the house of the Lord.\u201d (Psalm 92:12\u201313)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
That\u2019s what Epiphany Ranch feels like \u2014 planting and flourishing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
What was once simply trees, land, a lake, and big Texas skies is now a haven called Joy, Love, Peace, and Miracle Mountain \u2014 the names of the cozy homes built here. Carl and I are staying in Miracle Mountain, the very first one built, and the peace here truly lives up to its name.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sometimes God\u2019s goodness looks like miracles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sometimes it looks like family gathered around a table, hands working side by side, hearts grateful for the chance to serve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe love because He first loved us.\u201d (1 John 4:19)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And here under these big, wide Texas skies, that\u2019s exactly what we\u2019re doing \u2014 loving, serving, building, and celebrating God’s goodness together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Oh, the joy of loving — shoulder to shoulder — while celebrating God’s creation that comes with His peace, joy and love for Him and each other!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
