As Edgies come home and begin to process their time abroad, we checked in with them to hear about their experiences in their own word. Q: If you consider all you have learned at Edge during your daily cross-cultural experiences, art and cultural outreaches, studies in LoveWorks, stories from leaders and/or Spaniards, etc. Describe one […]

Jason Leith – Part 4
Restoration: From Our Team To Our City The arts were expressed in ministry in many ways through our mission trip. But before sharing more of these projects, I want to take time to share our team was prepared for them. God did the work of preparing our hearts and minds, shaping and restoring us to […]
Jason Leith – Part 2
Relational Jesus & The Arts While working with Edge Project in Spain, we were able to learn more about what it is we are doing as artists on a mission. Digging into the gospel of Mark we looked at how Jesus did ministry and reached the city. One of the most important things we noticed […]
Part of a Bigger Picture
For two weeks Edge had the pleasure of hosting a group of artists from California, called Ex Creatis. They blessed us with their presence and encouragement and we were able to bless them in preperation for the next part of their journey: Germany. All of our lives were changed in those two weeks and God […]
Another Week, Another Chapter: Reflection on Week 3 of EDGE Project 2015
July is the most lively time of the year in Altea. Each night, the shops and restaurants are filled to the brim with people from Spain, Britain, Germany, Norway, and beyond. World-class balloon makers and local musicians make their presence most known during this season, capitalizing off of the energy and euros of the crowd. […]
A Patchwork of People, A Mosaic of Moments: A Reflection on Week 2 of EDGE Project 2015
As I sit down to write at a café, drinking a house blend tea at the hottest time of the day—at this point very used to living in my own sweat—I realize that I have almost forgotten what it was like to arrive here for the first time. Two weeks in and we have settled […]
Meet Our Staff – Stephanie Gant
Here are some of the parts God has appointed for the church: first are apostles, second are prophets, third are teachers, then those who do miracles, those who have the gift of healing, those who can help others, those who have the gift of leadership, those who speak in unknown languages. 1Corinthians 12:28 The […]

This Hope We Have
I have been in ministry most of my life. That is not an exaggeration – I have spent more of my life living overseas in other cultures than here in California where I was born. There’s something beautiful about filling our lives with new friends, but sometimes there’s nothing better than sitting down with old […]
To Whom Much is Given…
“To whom much is given, much will be required.” This almost sounds like a threat, or a dare or a mom guilting her kids into doing something for her. But that’s not really the heart if God. God gives us things to enjoy and protect and multiply. God gives us beautiful things and then […]
All is Not Lost
We recently received news, regarding El Diseno, that we will not be compensated by the city for its destruction to fund its renovations. That news has only been compounded this week by the realization that we could lose it forever. It’s become an expensive weight the Edge Project can no longer carry. To say we don’t want to lose it is an understatement and honestly, it’s […]
El Diseño – The City Decides Against Us
As many of you may be aware, 2 ½ years ago, the ceiling of first floor of our art gallery & gathering place collapsed, leaving our El Diseño in shambles. We’ve since discovered that the collapse was the result of years of water seeping through the old city wall and into our ceilings and floors. According to […]
Summer Reflection – Katherine Peiffer – Part 2
Part 2 My time in Altea with Edge Project was as a blink of the eye this summer; the daily routine enabled our team to encounter people who were in need of being seen and loved – reaching out a hand of compassion or an ear to listen. By integrating ourselves into the Spanish culture, […]
