I have a family member (Joanne) who has struggled the last several years with Parkinson's disease along with Alzheimer's disease. She believes in the power of prayer and together with her husband (Dave) has a sense that God will completely heal her. Please pray for perseverance and comfort for them along with the wisdom, discernment and grace to accept whatever it is God has planned for them. Thank you in advance for your prayers for them.

During this Christmas and New Year season, we invite you to explore a fantastic spiritual practice resource that many in our community have been finding a game-changer in their own spiritual lives.

Click Here to watch a 1-min video describing Lectio365 – a (free!) Daily Devotional and Guided Prayer App.

Each morning:

Engage in a creative 8-10 minute guided practice of scripture contemplation, personal reflection, and prayer.

Each evening:

Engage in another guided practice in the Prayer of Examen, contemplation, and preparation for rest.

We highly encourage you to give it a try for these two weeks, and just see what it does for your heart, mind, body, and spirit!

Bible Study

S.O.A.P. Bible Reading #2

This SOAP method of Bible study is a practice we often encourage to make a regular part of your time with God. Digging into and interacting with scripture is such a good spiritual-growth exercise, such a good place to catch a deeper glimpse of God. But even if you’ve never read the Bible before – don't worry; it’s not complicated and we’ll walk through it together step by step.

I want you to take a minute right now to look away from this screen, to whatever is around you. Inside, outside, alone or with other people doesn’t matter. Where are you right now, and what do you notice about the physical space around you?
