Prayer Wednesday

I received an email this week from a guy at SPL who wants to connect with his buddies and invite them into a 40-day ‘build our marriages stronger’ opportunity.

And he’s going to do it with his work buddies, NOT his church buddies! He wasn’t sure if it was a good idea, so he emailed to ask what I thought. I think it’s the best idea I’ve heard all year. This is EXACTLY what a ‘roof-ripping’ friend looks like. I was jealous I hadn’t thought of it.

Psalm 90 is a humble prayer that acknowledges how quickly life passes, how soon our run through this life is over, and how eternal our LORD is. Psalm 90 finishes with these words of prayer:

“May the favour of the LORD our God rest up on us;
establish the work of our hands for us
yes, establish the work of our hands.”

Amen!

Let’s pray today for creative, bold, and risky opportunities to invite people into the hope Jesus has given us! 

Praying with you.

Andrew

Baptism

June 8, 2025
Empowered Baptism is recognized throughout the Church as the beginning of a ‘God thing.’ John’s baptism was a visible demonstration of the start of a new life — clearing out the junk to prepare for what God was about to do. Jesus’ baptism reveals the true heart of baptism: God’s desire to bless and express His delight. The baptism of the Holy Spirit is the start of the Kingdom. Ordinary women and men were now filled with the Spirit of Jesus to continue on the ministry Jesus started.

Baptism

June 1, 2025
Luke 3:21-22 -At Jesus’ baptism, the Father said, “You’re my son. I love you. I’m proud of you.” As Christians, our baptism is a sign that we are in Christ, that what is true about him is true about us, and that the Father’s blessing now defines us.
