The Weapon of Prayer
by Nathan Fulk on September 30th, 2024

Prayer is our lifeline to the most powerful, all-knowing, loving Father, who knows your situation better than you do...  Read More

In All You Do

To trust is to be vulnerable. This isn’t a comfortable feeling, and can elicit many fears. Yet, God calls us to trust Him in all that we do. His ways are higher and our understanding is limited. Seeking Him and His will in prayer, and putting all our trust in Him, will lead us in the direction He wants us to go and into the full life He desires for us.Before we begin, let us pray and invite God in...  Read More
