The Pathway of Peace- 9/29/2024

September 29, 2024 • Pastor Steve and Jen • Philippians 4:4–9

We are in a season where, to some, the word "peace" has no meaning other than a feeling or a choice of a false reality. Did you know that Jesus has promised us peace? He says, "Peace I leave with you; My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Do not let your hearts be troubled, nor let it be fearful." (Jn.14:27). We are in a time of wars, social unrest, political unrest, financial unrest, and just plain unrest. We aren't sleeping well, many people are losing jobs, and there are school shootings and road rage shootings. The list goes on: How can we find peace in this time?   It is not easy, but we must place our foot on The Path of Peace. This is a way of life that we must choose over and over to allow Jesus to give us His peace. Through prayer and spiritual disciplines, we will find and stay on the pathway of peace.

1/7/2024 - Prayer & Fasting

January 7, 2024 • Pastor Steve & Jen • Matthew 6:1–18

Have you been feeling a need for greater power in your prayers? Have you sensed that God wants to do great things in your life, yet your prayer life is not up to the challenge? Are you unable to lay hold of something God wants to give you? We have. We know how important it is to pray through a matter until there is a spiritual breakthrough, but knowing what to say and being able to pray with conviction that change is really taking place is an entirely different experience. Of course, we've had those moments, and so have you. But not enough of them. We still see too many unmet needs, and the enemy's power seems too strong in some situations. So, for a while, God has been calling us to go deeper into a discipline we had only practiced occasionally. He wants us to learn how to fast. Today, we want to share some of the things we have learned and invite you to a special season of prayer and fasting. We are no experts in this, but we have already seen enough to know regular fasting was a missing piece in our prayer life. We have seen some real breakthroughs over the past few years and feel led to show you what we have discovered.
