How do we approach reading the Bible? Is it something that we find important? Do we read just to "get it done?" This week Pastor Eli looks at the discipline of Reading God's Word and proposes a different way of looking at a practice that is absolutely vital to faith.
CONFESSION
July 7, 2024 • Eli Thomas • Psalm 32, 2 Samuel 11:2–11
Confession is the practice of being honest before God about our sins. Too often we want to look past the details and give a blanket apology but God challenges us to be specific because when we do we discover that while it is a lot harder to hide from our sins, there is also a powerful freedom that comes from turning them over to be forgiven. God releases us not just from the punishment but also from the shame and the guilt!
PRAYER
July 14, 2024 • Eli Thomas • Psalm 32:1–6
In the second week of our "getting back to basics" series, Pastor Eli talks about the practice of prayer. We know what it is and many of us make it a part of our lives, but are we giving enough attention to communication with God? And do we trust that it can actually make a difference? join us as we look at the topic of prayer and how a healthy prayer life can have an enormous impact on our spiritual well-being.
