Celebrating Resurrection Sunday at Bannockburn Church with this message from Pastor Craig Turnbull. He Is Risen!

Let’s face it—prayer is often discussed in church, but not entirely understood. At its core, prayer is straightforward and sincere communication with God. It’s essentially the specific name we give to our dialogue with Him. But, if it’s merely communication, why does it pose such a challenge? Why is it so difficult to dedicate the time, maintain the focus, and truly feel like we’re conversing with...

The Lord cares a great deal about the hurting. He cares about the broken hearted and the crushed in spirit. He cares about the ones who have fallen far from him and are desperate apart from him. He cares about the lost. He cares about the hopeless. He cares. The book of Jonah is a wonderful story of a God who relentlessly pursues his people. From the lost city of Nineveh, to the lost sailors at se...
