Prayer

The ultimate aim of prayer is not to “pray more” or “pray better.” It’s what ancient Christians called union with God. It’s to live each day more and more aware of and deeply connected to our Father; to be transformed into the likeness of his Son, Jesus; and to be filled with the fullness of his Spirit, to do what he made you to do in the world.

Prayer That Makes Room in Your Life

July 28, 2024
Prayer changes things. The most effective prayers are not the ones which seek to change my situations and circumstances—the world and people around me; the most effective prayers are the ones that change ME.
Preacher : Tom VanderPloeg
Passage: 2 Corinthians 3:7-18
Prayer

Making Room in Your Life for Prayer

July 21, 2024
Jonah gives us an example of both a prayer that makes room in his heart, and a prayer that shuts out room in his heart. We can learn from Jonah the ways in which our own hearts either make room for prayer, or shut out room for prayer.
Preacher : Tom VanderPloeg
Passage: Jonah 2:1-10, Jonah 4:1-11
Prayer

Prayer Presence – being with God

July 14, 2024
What an amazing thing it is that God has made it possible for us to present with God by the indwelling of his Holy Spirit. In prayer, we can embrace the indwelling presence of God with us.
Preacher : Tom VanderPloeg
Passage: Psalm 27:1-14
Prayer

Prayer Posture – listening to God

July 7, 2024
Learning to sift through all the “voices” in our world and to discern how God is speaking to us is a key task of discipleship. Prayer teaches us how to silence all the other noise in our world so that we can listen to God.
Preacher : Tom VanderPloeg
Passage: Psalm 46:1-11
Prayer

Prayer Pattern – talking with God

June 23, 2024
God invites us as his people to connect our hearts with his heart; a well-rounded rhythm of prayer with God helps us as disciples of Jesus to remain connected to God’s heart.
Preacher : Tom VanderPloeg
Passage: Psalm 42, Psalm 43
Prayer

Prayer Practice – talking to God

June 16, 2024
Prayer is a practice which brings us in union with God; sometimes the best way to begin embracing a life of prayer is to let others give you the words.
Preacher : Tom VanderPloeg
Passage: Psalm 119:97-104
