Does Prayer Even Work

Contributed by Jeff Poor on May 11, 2017

Prayer isn't a wish list. Prayer isn't a formal conversation. Pray is a vulnerable, honest, and raw conversation with God. God doesn't want the information, He wants the conversation.

Title: Does Prayer Even Work? Text: Matthew 6:5-13 Bottom Line: Prayer isn’t a wish list, it’s the foundation to a relationship. Intro A couple years ago I was asked to be in a wedding in Iowa. An other buddy of mine was also in the wedding and we decided we would fly out a day or two early and ...read more

The Lord's Prayer Part 3 Series

Contributed by David Nolte on Jun 17, 2019

We should and can ask God for all we need

We hardly need encouragement to ask for things. From birth to death from cradle to crypt our wants and needs drive us to obtain what we want or need. Some mistakenly think that we should not ask for things for ourselves because “it isn’t spiritual” (whatever that means). But hear this: * “Ask, ...read more

When To Be Seen; When Not To Be Seen Series

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jun 19, 2019

Do we let our good deeds shine out or do we do them in secret? Is Jesus talking out of both sides of His mouth here?

Wednesday of 11th Week in Course 2019 A priest I know preached recently on this passage from St. Matthew’s Gospel and pointed out that this part of the Sermon on the Mount appears to contradict the earlier passage that tells us not to hide the good that we do under a basket.

This is Part 11 in a 14-part series of studies I call “The Christian Character” as described by Jesus in what is familiarly known as the “Sermon on the Mount.” In this part Jesus tells his audience 3 things not to do for the sake of being seen. This teaching includes a model for prayer.

What Jesus Said About Prayer

Contributed by John White on Jul 13, 2019

Since God universally speaks prayer as His common language, if we wish to talk with God we must speak His own language.

Disciplined Christian Living Series

Contributed by Charles Cunningham on Aug 2, 2019

Disciplined Christian living comes naturally to mature kingdom dwellers who instinctively know right from wrong and act accordingly.

Is Repetition Bad

Contributed by Dr. Ronald Shultz on Jan 19, 2019

CCM is bashed for repetition and length, but are the critics right?

Mat 6:7 But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking. 8 Be not ye therefore like unto them: for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask him. When it comes to prayer, Christ is not into vain ...read more

Never Give Up: Pray!

Contributed by Wade Martin Hughes, Sr on Jan 26, 2019

Come let us reason about prayer. There are UN-HEALTHY prayers and HEALTHY prayers. Let us study about our attitudes while we pray. Real worship is more than a circus. Do we pray with eternities' values in view. Do I have an impressive prayer life? By whose standards? TWO PRAYERS?

Humble Thyself

Contributed by Tim Carpenter on Feb 13, 2019

Do not exalt yourself. Do not be prideful. Do not claim to be the best at anything, even if it's true. You are not really 10 ft. tall and bullet proof. Even Superman has weakness. Pride is our Kryptonite.
