Prayer: "Holy Spirit - I invite you. Help me to grow in my awareness of you. Illuminate and bring to the surface times that I’ve hurt you, hurt others and hurt myself. Lord, I need grace to see myself clearly. I need grace to love the unlovely parts of me. May I not trip or stumble over shame or guilt, but be empowered in honest examination and humble exposure. May I remember that you love me and...

It's hard watching someone crash and burn. We want to rescue others and we want to be rescued. But, in most cases, the most loving thing is to let someone burn - even if that person is yourself. In this episode of Morning Coffee with PB, we're talking about natural consequences, burning to learn, and discipline. How God, in His infinite love and wisdom, disciplines & allows consequences for us to...

Prayer: "In our exile, listen as we plead. God, lean down and listen. Open Your eyes and see our despair. See how Your city—the city that bears Your name—lies in ruins. We make this plea, not because we deserve help, but because of Your mercy. Lord, hear. Lord, forgive. Lord, listen and act! For Your own sake, do not delay, O my God, for Your people and Your city bears Your name. Lord, when correc...

Take a listen to our conversation about the transition back from pandemic living to in-person gatherings. We ask the questions: Why do we need to meet in person if we can do so online? And how can we prepare ourselves for a post-pandemic living?

Prayer: God of Power, God of All. You give and You take away. Keep me far from the temptation of arrogance that leads me to believe that I hold the scales of my life. Instead, soften my spirit. Make my posture be one of humility. Knowing it is YOU who holds each day, each breath in Your hands. And in holy reverence, may I look to Jesus, our Teacher, our savior, as the blueprint for my life and act...

Prayer: “King of Heaven. King over all, You reign. I confess again that You rule my life, and I do not. You humble the proud, so find me broken and find me meek. As the Psalmist says, create in me a clean heart, O God. Even when it hurts, I will praise You and trust that You are a loving Father. Lord, I ask, please restore and renew me. Shine your light upon me. I praise and glorify and honor you....

Prayer: "Good God to whom nothing and no one is hidden from. You see us exactly the way we are - and You still love us.

We just want to be more like You. In Your name we pray, Amen."

He guides me along the right paths for his name’s sake. Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me. You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You ano...
