SWIM Nation Call – Joy and Laughter in Turbulent Times

July 17, 2021 @ 9:30 AM - 10:00 AM PDT

SWIM Nation CallsSigned, Sealed, and Delivered in Christ.

Joy and Laughter in Turbulent Times
Coming out of a worldwide pandemic, observing conflicts between nations, and hearing distressing news every day, it’s not surprising the Gospel of Matthew records Jesus telling His disciples about the turbulent times that would occur on earth before His 2nd Coming. Elsewhere Jesus said, “In this world, you will have trouble.” Fortunately, He wasn’t finished with this statement. He added, “. . .but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world!” In spite of troubles and problems, Christ’s followers are expected to be joyful overcomers because of what Jesus did for us going willingly to the Cross, “for the Joy that was set before Him!” We Christians, have at our disposal the divine Gifts of Joy and Laughter that come from knowing Him and living daily in His presence. Let’s laugh, and sing with a merry heart so others may see in us the infectious Joy of the Lord that brings true happiness into the world.

Rev. Gwen Ehrenborg is a retired United Methodist Minister who co-pastored churches in So. California for 30 years with her clergy husband, Pastor Todd. After missionary service in Mexico and Congo, Africa, she earned a Masters of Divinity degree from Fuller Theological Seminary. Pastor Gwen is best known for her drama and teaching ministry, Living Witnesses, through which she dramatically portrays 7 leading women of Church history. Active in a number of para-church ministries, her great passion is S.W.I.M. International. Gwen felt God’s prompting to begin S.W.I.M. in 2004 by first bringing women in ministry and prayer intercessors together in support groups. After chairing the S.W.I.M. Board of Directors for 13 years, she now hopes to travel as its International Ambassador. Her latest book, Our Church Mothers, Letters from Leaders at Crossroads in History, shares the accomplishments and inspiring faith of women whom God raised up to be highly influential spiritual leaders.
