Regular involvement in a Christ-centered church is vital to our growth in faith, but equally important is personal time spent in Bible study and prayer. There is no substitute for personally exploring God's Word on our own, and no alternative to personally directing our concerns and requests and praises to God's throne. Think of it like this. We are eager to grow a strong, oak-like trust in God through faith in His Son, Jesus Christ. The soil in which the oak grows best is the church, the family of God.
Bible study is the food that nourishes a healthy tree of faith.
Prayer is the water that makes it possible to bring the oak to rich, green life. Permission granted to forward to family and friends via e-mail. All other rights reserved.
