Paul's Prayer For God's Control Of You Series

Contributed by Billy Ricks on Mar 23, 2014

Paul as we say in the south chases a rabbit of huge importance. He tells of the central importance of the church in God's plan to reveal His wisdom in the Gospel. Then Paul prays that the church will practically live what God has divinely designed.

Intro: Paul was just getting ready to pray for the Ephesian church when he was reminded of the importance of the church and as preachers are often known to do he chases a rabbit. What an important rabbit to chase today. The church would probably not make it into a list of the 50 most important ...read more

The Life Of Paul Part Viii - No Regrets Series

Contributed by Dan Carroll on Nov 28, 2016

Paul's Prayer Requests

Contributed by John Gaston on Mar 6, 2024

Paul prayed at least 5 prayers for believers. These prayers are extremely important because they were inspired by the Holy Spirit and capture the will of God for our transformation into the image of Christ.

Why Paul Wanted To Send Timothy

Contributed by Barnabas Park on Apr 25, 2025

Total Surrender - The Transformation Of Saul To Paul

Contributed by Dr. Jonathan Vorce on Jul 5, 2024

Have you ever wondered what "Total Surrender" looks like? Through the Saul-Paul story, we learn that true surrender involves giving up control and submitting our will, thoughts, desires, and ambitions to God.

Solemnity Of Saints Peter And Paul, Apostles

Contributed by Paul Andrew on Jun 22, 2025
