day 5 prayer and fasting
Hello Church, This is day 5 of our first week to fast and pray as the season of the school year begins. The school year is the time to “train yourself for Godliness” as well. 1 Timothy 4.7. Godliness brings us God’s blessings and increases our world impact. Maybe you think you placed yourself in the position you are in right now. Maybe you alone did that. But likely, God’s hand was also in it. For sure, God’s plan is…
day 3 of prayer and fasting
Hello Church, This is day 3 of Prayer and Fasting. “Devote yourselves to prayer with an alert mind and a thankful heart.” Colossians 4:2 NLT Sunday, August 25th through September 8th. Pick the meals and days you will fast. Use that time to pray. Pray in circles. Concentric circles. Expanding circles like ripples in a pond. Pick up a ‘Prayer and Fasting’ brochure on the Back Table. You will have a specific prayer guide for each day. List what you…

Unshakable Hope! Session 11.
Hello Church. Unshakable Hope! This Sunday is Session 11. There is no condemnation in Christ. I can’t wait to explore the truth of this promise with you Sunday. This is the story that you and I could never have written and never have imagined. This promise is one that only God could’ve come up with. Man has demonstrated how he would figure out the balance sheets of heaven and God’s way is far superior and unique. No person thought this up.…
Pray for our new Associate Minister
Please join us in praying for who the Lord will bring as our new Associate Minister. There are some specific qualities we want you to be praying for over the next couple weeks/months as we search for a new Associate Minister. The third quality; For him to be A Loving Minister: It can be very easy to “do ministry” without loving people. It is easy to see people as projects that you want to fix rather than children you deeply…

lesson 8 in Unshakable Hope
Hello CCA Have you done much reading in scripture about the Christian’s information about what happens when death confronts us or our loved ones?

This Sunday is lesson 8 and you can read a great presentation in chapter 10 “This temporary tomb” in the book: “Unshakable Hope.” We can anticipate our resurrection by viewing…

Would you offer your final request for God to Spiritually and miraculously intervene in the lives of the 42 students there? And the final hours of the speakers and leaders. Here’s what I have spoken to God, “Inspire Nate the speaker. Give…
