Pray that the Lord would send His angels to surround Ian as he readjusts to moving, sleeping, playing, ...more
Prayer & Praise Monday - February 3, 2014
- Happy Monday, Prayer Warriors! As I sat down to write this, the Lord brought Psalm 30:4, 5b to mind: "Sing praise to the Lord, you saints of His, And give thanks at the remembrance of His holy name. Weeping may endure for a night, But joy comes in the morning." (NKJV) Today as I think about the praises I have to share, I am reminded of how dark, dark, dark life seems to be in the midst of the storms. We ...more

So let's begin with a prayer for our pastors: Dear Jesus, Thank you for not leaving us alone!

Filling Your Heart and Your Home With Worship - Part 1
- I had one of “those” days this week. I had been up later than I should have been the night before trying to finish some projects without enough success to warrant the late night. Then I woke up before 5 am, after just a few hours of sleep, and couldn’t fall back asleep after that. Instead, my mind began to swirl with to-do lists, conversations I needed to have, and the worries of the days ...more
Prayer & Praise Monday - July 8, 2013

Prayer & Praise Monday - March 11, 2013
- Happy Monday, Prayer Warriors! My pastor shared this quote recently and I thought it was a great picture of prayer:  “Prayer pulls the rope down below and the great bell rings above in the ears of God. Some scarcely stir the bell, for they pray so languidly; others give only an occasional jerk at the rope. But he who communicates with heaven is the man who grasps the rope boldly and pulls continuously with all his might..” – ...more
