When you pray - what does it sound like? What do you say?

Most of us are well acquainted with "petitionary" prayer. It's the kind of prayer where we are asking God to help us. To give us this or that. To protect us in some way. And there's precedent to pray this way: Jesus teaches us to pray: "Give us."

But has praying this way deformed our understanding of who God is? Have we questioned the power of prayer when our requests have gone (seemingly) unanswered? How do we pray this way rightly?

Listen to Pastor Kevin as he shared what it means to pray this petition. And cling, along with Him, to the bread of life!

If God desires our good...and if God is all powerful...then why do I experience suffering?

This is one of the biggest charges against the Christian God and one of the biggest challenges for believers in Him. Yet, the Bible declares that "all things work together for good" for those who love Him (Rom 8:28).

Is that really true? How do we explain the difficulties we experience with our understanding of God's good purposes for us? How do we find the courage to pray "Thy Will Be Done" when God's will runs counter to the plans we would form for ourselves?

In this sermon, Pastor Kevin explores the 3rd petition of the Lord's Prayer through the lens of the Old Testament character - Joseph.

Listen and consider how God is weaving together your story - for your good.

The 2nd petition of the Lord's Prayer is: "Thy Kingdom Come." What do we mean when we pray this? Do you know?

Jesus spoke about "The Kingdom" over 100 times in the Gospels. It was a central theme for Him. Something vital to why He came to Earth. So...what is it?

In this sermon, Pastor Kevin shares what the "Kingdom of God" is, how it differs from "kingdoms" of this world, and how we can access it.
