Lake Springs Church

As we continue our summer studying prayer, we start studying through the book of Habakkuk. We see Habakkuk honestly crying out to God, bring his honest and raw emotions before the Lord. We see that God can handle our big questions and that if we want to have a rich prayer life, prayer required honesty.

As we continue our series on prayer, we ask the question, where should we begin? To begin having a rich prayer life, we need to learn to be still and be with Jesus.

What do we do when we're struggling to pray or lack the desire? Our struggle to pray reveals what we believe about God. Strength to pray doesn't come from ourselves, it comes from the Spirit.

As we begin our series entitled "Pray Without Ceasing", we start by looking at what prayer actually is. Many of us have a misunderstand about what prayer is and we have to clarify our understanding of prayer if we want to have a rich a full prayer life.

At Church Around the Table, Lake Springs Church and Esperanza Church came together to worship, pray, and eat together in a day of unity and community.

As we conclude our study through the book of Ephesians, Paul gives us a sobering look at the reality of the enemy that we face. We can remain alert and prepared if we put on the armor of God and continually pray for perseverance.

As we continue to study Ephesians, we see further implications of the mutual submission taking place within Christian households. Through these instructions, we can learn to better lead our households as we care for and submit to one another.

Paul gives us a new vision for marriages as we see how we, as believers, are instructed to submit to one another. Marriage is meant to point to the New Creation, when all things are made new and made whole.

As we continue our study through Ephesians, we see Paul give two examples that we can follow. We can follow the self-giving love of Christ or the self-serving love of the world. Which example will we choose to follow?

As we continue our study through Ephesians, we see Paul's instruction to take off the old self to put on the new. If we are in Christ, we have been made a new creation and we are to live into that new identity rather than continuing to live in our old clothes.
