When we feel desperate or abandoned, it can feel inauthentic to strive towards thankfulness. This week we look at David, who found the key to gratitude in the midst of a raw prayer, asking God for help as he faced off against his enemies.

Every person deep down longs for happiness. The good news is that the blueprint to happiness is within reach of every person, free of charge!

Sometimes it seems in life that nothing goes according to plan. It’s not easy to trust when we find ourselves in the middle of a mess. But our God is faithful, even when we’re not and unwavering in his sufficiency.

The resurrection of Lazarus was truly a miracle by all accounts. But is it possible there’s a another miracle “hidden” in this story? This week we continue our exploration of God’s sufficiency.

Navigating life has it’s share of challenges. For believers, sometimes hardships come and God seems distant. This week Pastor Bil begins a mini-series that addresses how we find our sufficiency in silence.

Prayer is not a duty, it is devotion. The privilege of prayer expands way beyond a month or moments when we’re overwhelmed. God wants to talk with us all of the time! For those of us who do not pursue prayer as a regular devotion in our Christian walk, it can be difficult to know how to go about it. So this week we’ll dig into a helpful model for prayer that Jesus taught his disciples.

This weekend we continue our series on prayer. Sometimes the Lord asks us to say yes to things that are painful and hard. Because our God is a good Father we can trust Him to lead us in a way that is good even if it doesn’t feel good to us in the moment. So we wrestle. We pay attention to the pain, we press in, we persevere in prayer.

This week Pastor Bil takes a look at where we find power in prayer and how just one word can change our lives.

This weekend Pastor Bil shares his second prayer month message. Our study this Sunday will begin to look at what many consider to be one of the most challenging aspects of prayer: hearing God’s voice. We’ll look at 3 powerful examples in scripture and take some time to “lean in” and hear what the Lord is saying together.

Recent surveys suggest a huge disconnect between the importance people place on prayer and the actual practice of it. The disciples of Jesus had their own questions about prayer, and many who have been following Jesus for a long time still wonder how prayer makes a difference? In this message, Pastor Bil begins an exciting new series in conjunction with prayer month. Heaven and earth intersect when we become right-sized and speak with God though prayer.
