Welcome to the first ever “We Recommend” Blog! For a few years now, we’ve selected a record that we feel is well worth a recommendation from one (or more) of the JFH staff to YOU and placed it in a little box on the front page of Jesusfreakhideout.com. Well, we’ve […]

“‘Spend Time With Me'” by John DiBiase
It’s kind of a mind-blowing concept to realize the God who created the earth and every thing and everyone on it wants to spend time with us… even me?! As a married man (with no children yet) who spends a lot of his time alone at a desk, one little […]
“Change And Growth: Two Of My Most Recent Life Experiences” by Laura Sproull
Okay. So I guess I took a little longer than expected to write another blog, and for this I apologize. I’m sure you are all familiar with the concept of change. Sometimes change is good and other times it can be the worst experience ever. I experienced a lot of […]
“Healer” by David Goodman
Amazing how easy it is to pass judgment on the fallen. I thought that was something the world was enthralled with? Celebrity’s fall from the spotlight, public gaffes, embarrassment, divorce, infidelity, public intoxication… The world consumes failure like it’s chocolate. And then I thought about the church as a whole. […]
“We Are The Branches. He Is Divine.” by John DiBiase
It’s interesting to me how sometimes God can seem to remain so silent through times of adversity, and then just kind of hit you with a simple yet effective revelation that not only reminds you just how dense you can be, but it also tends to make you feel embarrassed […]
“Forget the Shift- Paradigms Need Breaking” by David Goodman
I don’t rightly know how it happened. For as long as I can remember, there has been a singular desire- one thing above and beyond all others to which I have devoted my prayer and attention. Purpose. Calling. Function. Pursuit. Mission. Whatever you’d call it. A vague picture in my […]
“Why Can’t They All Just Say It?” by Matt Johnson
Well, I anticipated doing another blog long before now, but this appears to be a busy Summer for me. After getting home from Creation I’ve been running. A whole month has passed already! That’s crazy. Last weekend I went to a local music fest that featured Seventh Day Slumber and […]
“When Your Heart Needs A Song…” by John DiBiase
It’s no secret that living the Christian life is difficult. Most of us experience dry spells and “why God?” moments in our lives — some more frequently than others — and we often find those times where God seems distant or altogether silent. I was thinking this afternoon about how […]
“Oh! Clarity.” by John DiBiase
As a guy who tends to need direction when it comes to venturing into the scriptures, I often default to laid-out devotionals for my quiet times with God (I’m a pretty indecisive person). However, the daily devotionals I use are rather lazy… lumping Saturday and Sunday into one thing known […]
“Confessions of a Fest-Going Youth Worker” by Matt Johnson
Well, I leave with my youth group for Creation on Tuesday. I just got done packing yesterday. Yeah, I know what you’re thinking, “Wow! Packed already?! He must be really excited.” I am pretty excited, but there’s a lot more to it than just that. You see, I’m packed, but the group? […]
