What areas in your life as an apprentice of Jesus do you sense the most resistance in becoming like Him? Could fasting be an aid? Have you ever participat...

Dave, Mike, Chase, and Dan discuss last Sunday's sermon on the topic of fasting.

Sermon - Introduction to the Kingdom Practice of Fasting Matthew 9:14-17 Big Idea: Jesus assumes that His apprentices will use fasting as a means to amplify our prayers in order that we might experience His kingdom in our lives with more fullness. “But when you fast, anoint your head and wash your face, that your fasting may not be seen by others but by your Father who is in secret. And your Fathe...

In this episode of Sermon+ - Mike, Dave, Chase, and Dan discuss the sermon on the Lord's Prayer. The Lord knows what we need and tells us what we need.

In the Lord's Prayer, Jesus actually tells us what we need, and how we should pray for it. It's hard to not grow confused with all the nuance of desires, needs, ambitions, reactions etc. Especially if Jesus tells us to pray about anything and everything! What does the Scripture actually teach about this? How does Jesus want us to approach the subject of supplication, and even intercession...

Dave, Mike, and Dan discuss some aspects of the Sunday's sermon on the Lord's Prayer.

The main practice that we are learning during these weeks is to pray as Jesus prayed, and He gave us this model in what is known as the Lord’s Prayer. This week, we’ll look at what it means to pray “our Father in heaven” and “Hallowed be Your Name.” We will see that learning to pray like Jesus means developing a relationship with God as Father and cultivating His glory as our deepest desire. How d...
