The essence of prayer lies not in what we bring to God, but in the intercession of Jesus on our behalf. He stands as the bridge between humanity and divinity, offering prayers to the Father that transcend our inadequacies and shortcomings.

As a church, we are asking Jesus to teach us to pray, and we find incredible power in time spent with the heart of God.
The heart of Prayer is a Love relationship with a Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Today's service included "Prayers of the People" submitted and prayed for live during the service.

The Gift of God is the Source of Hope, Love and Joy. Receive the Gift of the Son.
Fear of missing out after a long wait causes us to lose confidence in the Promise of God. God fulfills His promises in His own perfect timing and unique way, exceeding our expectations with wonders beyond our imagination.
There is a trap in romanticizing and glorifying our past that can causes us to lose sight of (and confidence in) the future promise. Forget what is behind... press forward to the high call of God!

Is it possible to Love Jesus but hate the church? Not only is it possible, but it is common experience. Indeed, this is nothing new. When the church loses its way it becomes very hard to love. But is it good? Be part of the Remnant that is bringing renewal to the church.
There are practices that historically have been so firmly established as part of the Christian faith that they begin to define what it means to be a Christian.
