We must gather together in communion with our God. Yes, we do pray on Sunday mornings together. And we pray in our Sunday School classes and in our weekly Bible studies. These are all good and necessary. Let us also be praying throughout the week for our church, for our family, for our city, and for those who need to make a commitment to Christ.
Prayer changes things.
I do believe that much of what we have seen happen in our church in the past year was the result of all of you praying faithfully for the church every day for so long. Even when I called others who had left the church years ago, many of them still said they were praying for First Christian Church. And I know that there are still many here who pray faithfully for each other, for our church, for my ministry and for my family, and for those other needs in our church body. Prayer makes a big difference. Prayer changes things.
