West Point Military Academy 🇺🇸
Four years ago, we dropped our courageous Chloe off for Boot Camp with a loaded backpack for survival, prayers, and a whole lot of grit and determination. Today, we could not be more proud as we watched her take her oath to serve our country, we pinned her new rank, and she is now an Officer in the United States Army.

Not only is she graduating from one of the most prestigious military academies in the world, but she was also recognized with the First Lieutenant Elissa M. Bergevin Memorial Award as the MVP of volleyball! Wow, what an incredible honor and reflection of the leader and teammate she is.

West Point demanded everything from her physically, mentally, and emotionally, and she never quit. In fact, she thrived! Through it all, she has led with character, strength, humility, discipline, and grace.

Chloe, we love you beyond words and could not be more proud of the woman you are. You have put your faith and trust in God and He has carried you through. And you met your amazing future husband, William! Now a whole new season begins:

The past four years have brought me the best memories and some of the hardest, but I wouldn’t trade it for the world. Too many thank yous to count, but I would most importantly like thank the Lord and my wonderful family. I couldn’t have done these 47 months without them by my side. Blessed is an understatement, and I am honored to serve my beautiful country.

💥 12 life-changing takeaways from this week 👇

Grateful for a powerful few days at the Hawaii Leaders Summit in Kona with Dr. Bob Harrison.

There’s something sacred about being in a room full of Kingdom-minded leaders—marketplace and ministry—coming together to sharpen, encourage, and call each other higher. The longevity, faithfulness, and fruit on Dr. Bob’s life, ministry, and family is something I deeply honor. One line that stayed with me, echoing Oral Roberts, was simple but weighty: “I LASTED.”

In a world chasing quick wins, I want a life that lasts.

Some takeaways I’m carrying with me:
1. Consistency—even when it’s uncomfortable
2. Sow where you want to go
3. Reframe the situation—turn negatives into positives
4. Every season has a STRATEGY
5. The ANOINTING is your competitive advantage
6. Obstacles are OPPORTUNITIES in disguise
7. PROXIMITY matters—get around people already living where you’re called
8. Get comfortable being UNCOMFORTABLE
9. When God can trust you, He can ENTRUST you with more
10. To have more, you must become MORE
11. Faith and business INTERSECT together
12. STEWARDSHIP creates authority

We’re also so grateful that my husband and I both had the opportunity to share. Year after year, this gathering has truly transformed our lives. What I love most is that when Josh preached on the anointing, it became the thread woven through the entire week.

Leaving refreshed, stretched, and expectant.
Grateful for moments like these 🌺 Thank you @drincrease @annettevandyck
