A message from the series "Lord teach us to Pray." On Sunday Pastor Dave will continue with the message series “Sacred Conversations”. We will be looking at the beautiful Psalm 107. A psalm of thanksgiving and praise. As you read and study, please take note of the four wonderful pictures praising God for his deliverance. “His steadfast love will endure forever!”

A message from the series "Lord teach us to Pray." This Sunday Pastor Dave will continue with message #6 in the series “Sacred Conversations”. Have you ever found yourself in a place where you felt the weight of unresolved sin? In Psalm 32, David expresses his time in rebellion against God and the goodness of God’s mercy when he came to repentance. As you read and contemplate over this Psalm, focus on the message of Confession and Repentance.

A message from the series "Lord teach us to Pray." Sunday will be week #5 in the series “Sacred Conversations”. Pastor Dave will take us to the parable of the “Pharisee and the Tax Collector” in Luke 18:9-14. In our services, we have had conversations in regard to the “posture of the heart”. Pay special attention to the contrast in heart posture of these two men as they pray to God. Pastor Dave will teach and speak into this on Sunday.

A message from the series "Lord teach us to Pray." This Sunday we will hear message #4 in the series “Sacred Conversations”. Our study scripture will be 1 Samuel 1:15. In this section Hannah “a woman of grace” in her anguish of being barren went to the tabernacle to pray. Her suffering was made only to the Lord. Hannah was pouring herself out to God in a prayer of submission and sacrifice so much so that Eli the priest thought her to be drunk. As you read this story in 1 Samuel, ask if your own prayers connect with God at a heart level in a similar way as to the prayer of Hannah.

A message from the series "Lord teach us to Pray." On Sunday Pastor Dave will continue with message #3 in the series “Sacred Conversations”. He will take us to Daniel 9:1-23, a great prayer of intercession. Daniel, a prayer warrior even in exile, stayed connected to God. He had come to the knowledge that the length of the exile in Babylon would end after 70 years. In the weight of this revelation, Daniel prepared himself in humility to intercede in prayer for the Jewish nation. This is a great example of how God will start to work when He hears the prayers of one faithful intercessor.

A message from the series "Lord teach us to Pray." This Sunday Pastor Dave will take us to one of the most famous prayers of all time, and arguably one of the most important, the Lord’s Prayer in Matthew 6:5-15. Please take some quiet time this week reading and praying over this section of scripture in preparation for the massage.

A message from the series "Lord teach us to Pray." This coming Sunday Pastor Chris will kick off a summer series centered around some of the most profound prayers in God’s word. The Bible is pregnant with the prayers of both saints and sinners. It gives us a rich record of how image bearers have turned to God in moments of triumph, suffering, repentance, and joy. When the disciples asked Jesus, “Lord, teach us to pray”, he famously introduced them to the Lord’s Prayer. Yet the Bible has an abundant supply of men and women modeling spirit-led prayer for us in addition to Jesus’s direct teaching. We begin with a famous prayer in Ephesians 3:14-21. Interestingly, Paul literally prays for riches and power in this passage. But this prayer is no self-centered request of God! This is the heart cry of a man who wanted to take his flock in Ephesus to deeper waters in Christ. Meditate this week on the depths of Paul’s sacred conversation with the Father and join us as we go deeper into the mystery revealed to us as New Covenant saints!

A message from the series "Ephesians." This past Sunday Pastor Dave introduced us to Ephesians 3:1-13 focusing on verse 1. Now we will continue to explore and learn what this section of scripture has in store for us. Keep in mind as you study that Paul a prisoner of Christ knew that he had been given the stewardship to reveal the “mystery”. The “mystery” revealed that both Jew and Gentile alike would be fellow-heirs sharing the unsearchable riches of Christ. Take some quiet time this week reading and preparing for the message on Sunday.

A message from the series "Ephesians." This Sunday Pastor Dave will move us into the study of another amazing portion of God’s word, Ephesians 3:1-13. As all these messages have been, this is going to be another good one. In this we will see the humility in which Paul has accepted the ministry of the great "Reveal". Through the power of the spirit, Paul will share the mystery that gentiles will be included as fellow heirs of Christ, members of one body! A message that is so precious to all of us.

A message from the series "Ephesians." On Sunday we will again be discovering the riches found in Ephesians 2:11-22. As a follow-up to the wonderful message Pastor Chris brought forth last Sunday, Pastor Dave will have us take a deeper look at some of the foundational truths found in this important passage. Take some precious time this week to meditate on all the ways Paul describes the riches of our union in Christ, that we are one in Christ.
