A New Way To Pray
April 11, 2021
Senior Pastor Jeff Manion opens our series on The Lord’s Prayer. Through this conversation, we see that Jesus gives us a form, not a formula for prayer. We are challenged to follow Jesus’s own pattern of prayer by using The Lord’s Prayer to guide our conversation with God.

Deliver Us
Pastor Jeff Manion discusses Jesus’s instructions to pray “lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one.” Through this conversation, we see that Jesus wants us to ask for help with temptation because we are prone to self-deception and fulfilling our longings outside God’s plan. We are challenged to remember that not only has our sin transferred to Jesus on the cross, but that his goodness has transferred to us as well. Matthew 6:9-13

Hope Through Honest Prayer
Pastor Brad Holmes explores how God meets us in our darkest moments through David's honest prayer of lament in Psalm 142.

This message challenges us to bring our raw emotions to God, knowing he invites us to express ourselves honestly while anchoring our hope in his unchanging character.

Spaces
Where does God meet us? Throughout Scripture, he meets his people in real places—mountains, deserts, seas, and the temple. Each place teaches us something about who he is.
