Embark with us on an intimate odyssey, grounded in the teachings of Jesus Christ, as we seek the essence of discipleship amid the world's chaos. Our latest series invites you to reflect deeply on what it means to be with Him, become like Him, and extend His work into the tumult of today's society. As the political landscape quivers with the uncertainty of an election year, we contemplate how to uphold the pillars of presence, family, and mission, ensuring a life of flourishing within God's kingdom that outshines external turmoil.
The wilderness — both as a physical space and a metaphorical state of being — opens up an expanse for divine encounters and personal transformation. We turn to John the Baptist's example of solitude and embrace the solitude and introspection that are pivotal for spiritual growth. In an era where noise often drowns out clarity, we revere the silence that allows the word of the Lord to resonate within us. The Asbury University awakening stands as a profound illustration of how humility and hiddenness can spark waves of spiritual revival, encouraging a season of quiet and open-heartedness that prepares us for divine revelations.
As our journey culminates, we emphasize the eternal practice of worship and prayer, underscoring the importance of crafting a personal 'wilderness' for communion with God. Alongside our community's commitment to the Bread Bible Reading Plan and a week of unbroken prayer with 24-7 Prayer USA, we extend an invitation for you to weave prayer into your daily life. Let us bless our shared path and nourish a fellowship that cherishes reflection, tranquility, and an unwavering bond with the divine blueprint that guides our existence.
