Trapped But Not Alone

We celebrate the stories of spiritual development and restoration, such as Vic’s incredible story in this week’s blog. These stories can be powerful, but please note that they can also contain content that may be potentially sensitive.   I grew up in a Christian home, with amazing parents. I was raised in the church, but not everything in my childhood was good.  On multiple occasions, I experienced abuse at the hands of childhood “friends”, leaving me feeling unclean and like…

Chasing Warmth in Midwest Winters

We discovered Milestone Church in 2010 after moving to Keller from Austin. After trying a lot of really great churches, we knew Milestone was home as soon as we walked through the door. From the warm greeting in the parking lot, to the kindness and hospitality of everyone we met—this was home. We quickly worked through the Growth Track, got involved in small groups, discovered a passion for hospitality and greeting, and eventually joined the Growth Track volunteer team. My…

Faith and Financial Freedom

The past few years have been difficult, to say the least, as far as finances go. I quit my career to care for my mother when she was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s Disease but quickly realized I couldn’t care for her the way she needed, and she had to go to a special care facility. For the next 5 years, I just never returned to work. My husband was deployed in the U.S. Army most of the time, and I was…

From day one, James Hudson and his teams have been making a difference in the…

Neighborhood Missionaries

Reaching people here in our community is core to what we believe God has called us to; our heart is to care for the widow, the orphan, and the foreigner or refugee living alongside us. Jesus told His disciples that the mission of spreading the Gospel would start first in their city, then spread to the surrounding regions, and then to the ends of the earth. For over three years, teams of local missionaries from Milestone Missions, with a heart…

Summer Splash and Spiritual Family

This past Tuesday, both our campuses were buzzing with excitement as women throughout our community came together to celebrate our annual Summer Splash event. There’s no doubt, our Milestone Women know how to have fun! But we also know there’s something intangible about those nights that runs deeper than decor, ice cream, and dancing. We are all hard-wired for connection and meaningful relationships. It’s how God designed us—to walk alongside others in the context of spiritual family. We’re not meant…
