By looking at how the Apostle Paul encouraged the Ephesians to pray we can learn valuable questions worth asking as we examine our own prayer lives. It's only when we purposefully calculate against a natural spiritual drift that we can align our prayer lives with God's calling and purpose.  Need Prayer? 

Since prayer is universal and widely accepted, there are many misconceptions to prayer. Further, sometimes it feels like our prayers are not reaching God or He is not hearing them as well as we'd like because there are very real obstacles to our prayers . In this "sermon" we look at both the misconceptions and obstacles to effective prayer.  Need Prayer? 

The Bible tells us that the prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective. This means that when we pray we can be assured that God hears our prayers they are accomplishing much and that those prayers can change events here on earth even when we doubt they can.

Saying 'Nobody's Perfect' is a little like saying 'water is wet'. Most people understand that nobody is perfect. So is that true? And if it is true, why is it true?

Everybody's Welcome... we mean it. Jesus never avoided anyone but rather went out of His way to make everyone feel loved, wanted, and valued. Is it messy? You bet. When people have been on a long journey away from God they tend to bring a lot of baggage with them. As we like to say, “Bring the mess, Jesus can handle it.” Need Prayer?
