In the past few weeks as dirt has begun to move on the land, the building team has been meeting ever more frequently. Recently, we've had an evening dedicated to asking strategic questions about our kitchen and the cafe. One part of our vision is that we don't want the building to only be used [...]
If you've driven by our Prices Fork Land in the past two weeks, you've seen a steady stream of heavy machinery being unloaded. This week, the DIRT STARTED MOVING as site prep began! We are exuberant! They are currently making a construction entrance to the land and beginning to prepare the land for the foundation. [...]
"Bezalel and Oholiab and every craftsman in whom the Lord has put skill and intelligence to know how to do any work in the construction of the sanctuary shall work in accordance with all that the Lord has commanded.” And Moses called Bezalel and Oholiab and every craftsman in whose mind the Lord had put [...]
Obsessed with Time As a society we are obsessed with time. Most people wear a watch, a watch that tracks their heartbeat, steps, and location while delivering email and text messages.

Maybe you have heard or even asked this question at least a couple times. With our ceremonial groundbreaking four months behind us, I think we all had hoped that Northstar’s land would be dotted with various types of earth moving equipment before Christmas. Most of the delay is because we have had a longer than [...]
There’s no doubt that 2019 is going to be an exciting year for Northstar, and we have a lot to look forward to as the building construction work takes shape. While moving dirt and building a ministry center is fun, the finance team has some great things to share too. For some background for the [...]
A contract has been awarded to a company to demolish the beloved (beauty is in the eye of the beholder) green house on the land. They are ready to go and are simply waiting for final permits to be granted by the county. In recent weeks a team of Northstar men has cleaned up the [...]
We asked our church family to submit their reflections and thoughts about the Immeasurably More process. We're calling them "Rooted Moments." Many thanks to Sarah Smith for her thoughts: It's very evident that God is using Northstar church in the New River Valley.
