Pray First
Praying for Someone
January 21, 2024 • Angie Frame • Ephesians 6:18, John 17:1, John 17:9–11
Prayer isn’t just for ourselves, we can extend the gift of prayer to those around us, and pray for them too. In this week’s message Pastor Angie Frame shows us how and why it’s so important to pray on behalf of others. Pastor Angie discusses how Jesus models how we can and should pray for others and how going through the process of naming what we want for ourselves and our people moves us to places of relational and spiritual maturity.
How to Pray
January 14, 2024 • Brian C. Hughes • 1 Thessalonians 5:17, Psalm 9:10, Proverbs 1:7, James 4:8
Prayer is not just the thing to do when you want something or are struggling or are afraid. One of the most important things we can do when we pray is to thank God for what he’s already done. In this week’s message Pastor Brian Hughes shows us how prayer is more about the relationship with God than it is about the requests we ask of Him. Pastor Brian discusses how if we want to learn how to pray without ceasing, then we have to practice praying in all situations.
The Purpose of Prayer
January 7, 2024 • Brian C. Hughes • James 4:8, Matthew 6:5–13
There are some that will tell you if you pray right and believe enough, God will give you whatever you want, but that’s factually untrue. In this week’s message Pastor Brian Hughes shows us how the purpose of prayer is not to move God, but to move us, and affect us as we encounter the presence of God. Pastor Brian discusses how if we’ll use the prayer model that Jesus taught us as our road map for prayer not as something to recite but as a template, we’ll find ourselves more who God wants us to be and everyone wins when that happens, most especially you.
