When You Don’t Know How (Lord's Prayer) by Shepherd's Gate Church

Outdoor Service | Lions Theme | Jason Hanson by Shepherd's Gate Church

There may be lots of reasons to say a prayer, but one of the most common is to ask God for help with a problem, especially one we can't fix ourselves.

Good Enough To Move On. Have you ever heard this accronym? It can be helpful in some situations, but what about the story of our life? Are we content to settle for good enough in our relationships, families, or work? What about our faith? The story of Nehemiah in the Bible focuses on a man who couldn't settle for good enough, and found that God had way more in store for his life (and our's too) than "good enough."

Your life might be hard, but have you ever literally been shipwrecked? The apostle Paul in the Bible was. And that was just the tip of the iceberg (haha)! So when he writes about the trials and hardships of life, he's writing what he knows. His insights speak to us about the detours in our own lives and God's amazing way of transforming them into opportunities.
