The Summit Church

Aren’t you glad there’s a story in the Bible where Jesus explains to his disciples how to pray? He even gives us a model prayer to follow. This week Pastor J.D. walked us through the Lord’s Prayer and shared some practical suggestions for how to either start a daily prayer time or jump-start your prayer time if you’ve gotten into a rut.

The first week of our new series, “Ask,” will not just be an attempt to get you to make a New Year’s resolution about your prayer life. Together we’ll look at Jesus’ example and see that his whole life was saturated with prayer and that the main way we access his power is by praying in four specific ways.

For all that I need, all that I lack, all that I could never be in myself,Jesus is the great I AM.

There is freedom in not having to worry whether you will face adversity or prosperity today when you are in and with the Prince of Peace!

You’ve got to stop viewing your Heavenly Father through the lens of your earthly one. Reverse the order: Understand your earthly father through the lens of your Heavenly one.

What is the best thing God can do for you in the midst of any given problem? Do you trust him as Wonderful Counselor, and are you ready to do whatever he says?

Waiting can be hard, because in waiting, what we want to happen just hasn't happened yet. And waiting can especially be hard at Christmas. In Luke chapter two, there's a Christmas story for those who wait. It's not the Christmas story most of us are familiar with.

Unlike Esther, who was not confident her life would be saved if she obeyed God, we know how the story ends: God wins. The only question is whether or not we’re willing to follow God’s purpose for our lives and be a part of what he is doing in the world.

As we finish strong in our two-year Multiply faith journey, it’s timely to take a look at a passage in Galatians 6 that speaks to the principle of sowing and reaping. We’ll look at how God multiplies in kingdom fruit what we offer to him with open hands and how our money infallibly reveals what we worship.

Paul ends his letter to the Galatians by tying together his two main concerns of gospel integrity and relational unity and giving a litany of practical applications—not a list of things to do but out-workings of what has been done for us through Jesus Christ.
