Unity In God’s Family

Contributed by Dr. Jeffrey Dukeman on May 7, 2019

"Seek God’s Will” Series

Contributed by Dave Mcfadden on Oct 7, 2019

Seeking god's will begins with our learning to think as God wants us to think. From Epaphras' prayer for the Colossians we learn how we need to go about renewing our minds in order to stand firm in all the will of God.

Paul shares with the Colossians that their brother in Christ, who was sent to minister to Paul in prison, Epaphras, was “wrestling in prayer” for them that they might “stand firm in all the will of God.” What did Paul mean by “all the will of God?” He was saying we should seek to be in God’s will ...read more
