February 6, 2022 • Pastor Mark Geer • Acts 2:1–39, 1 Corinthians 14:1–19, Romans 8:26–27
Today we conclude our message series on prayer and how we can grow and utilize prayer in our daily lives.
Pastor Mark Geer explores the dynamic experience of prayer in the Spirit. This incredible gift from God is a powerful way for Believers to pray as they allow the Holy Spirit to express the will of God through them in unlearned utterances. This is called praying in the Spirit, or alternatively, praying in tongues.
Today’s message traces prayer in the Spirit back to its roots in Joel’s prophetic promise and its fulfillment on the Day of Pentecost when the 120 disciples were all filled with the Spirit and spoke with tongues as the Spirit gave them utterance. Pastor Mark explains the nature of this type of prayer and addresses its use in personal, private prayer as well as in the congregational setting. He also addresses the benefits and blessings that come to us when we pray in the Spirit.
Prayer in the Spirit is an incredible privilege God has granted to us and a warm and welcoming invitation to call upon His name knowing He has promised to hear us! We hope today’s message has a very relevant application to your daily life and provides some powerful suggestions on how you can develop a life of unceasing prayer.
#4 Spiritual Warfare
January 30, 2022 • Pastor Leland Geer • Daniel 10:1–15, 1 Thessalonians 5:17
Today we continue our message series on prayer and how we can grow and utilize prayer in our daily lives.
Today’s focus is on Spiritual Warfare and Guest Speaker Pastor Leland Geer gives insightful understanding to this topic in today's message. He uses Daniel 10:1-15 along with other passages to show us that God listens when we pray, assures us that He will answer every prayer we offer to Him, and promises to assist us in the realms of spiritual warfare as our prayers are lifted to Him.
Pastor Leland reminds us that "Prayer is not a shot in the dark!" / "As soon as you utter your prayer - immediately your words are registered in heaven in the Lord's ears!' / "Prayer is guaranteed a response when we pray in Jesus' name!" / "Prayer gets us the best answer God has for us!"
#3 Intercessory Prayer

#2 Conversation Without Ceasing
January 9, 2022 • Pastor Mark Geer • Psalm 51
Today we continue our message series on prayer and how we can grow and utilize prayer in our daily lives.
Today’s focus is on communicating with God in a regular and daily pattern that could be classified as prayer without ceasing. In a sense, it is a daily conversation with God that rises out of daily confessions that we make to God, a desire to consecrate ourselves to Him endlessly, and to bring our daily needs to God through prayer and petition.
This is an incredible privilege God has granted to us and a warm and welcoming invitation to call upon His name knowing He has promised to hear us! We hope today’s message has a very relevant application to your daily life and provides some powerful suggestions on how you can develop a life of unceasing prayer.

Today we kick off the New Year 2022 with a Week of Prayer and a special series of messages focused on how we can grow and utilize prayer in our daily lives.
Today’s focus is on worship and praise as it relates to our prayer life and our relationship with God. Is your life bland? Are you struggling in your relationship with God? Are you fighting depression and discouragement? Worship and Praise is a powerful way to invigorate your life’s purpose and meaning while bringing glory and honor to God.
We hope today’s message has a very relevant application to your daily life and provides some powerful suggestions on how you can develop a life of worship and praise.
