How is your heart? What do you hunger for? What do you want? As Jesus continue discipling His Kingdom citizens, He presses into the core of our being and challenges us to treasure that which is truly worthy of our affections.

After aligning our hearts with God's name, kingdom, and will, we have the privilege of bringing our daily needs before our caring Father in prayer.

After instructing us on the problems we have with prayer and inviting us to have a posture of childlike dependency, Jesus gives us a pattern for praying. This week we'll look at the first three God-centered petitions of name, kingdom, and will.

Have you ever truly wondered what your purpose is? Psalm 134 calls God's people to their intended purpose and the benefits thereof.
