In this world, we are facing some big problems. We have economic, social, cultural, relational and spiritual problems.

For the next seven weeks, we are doing a study on the Lord’s Prayer so we can reconnect with God, so that in our tough times we will turn to the Lord. This series is called Pray Like Jesus because if Jesus prayed it, you know God answered it. So this is a pattern for prayer. The starting point to the road of renewal is to connect with God, and prayer is a vital spiritual connection. (more…)

Maybe you want a change. INCREASE is a challenge to put down deep spiritual roots. Todd’s first message in this 6-week series focuses on Gratitude. (more…)
