Jesus wants to come close.
The Lord has expressed his desire to come close to us, both in scripture and through our leadership. This is the heart of God, that he would dwell with his people, deeply, richly, intimately. Communion with the Lord is our greatest honor.
He has made himself available, have you?
Our response to the Lord as a church matters. We are being intentional about coming before him in humility and faith—not just for a one time event or a certain outcome, but to be faithful in seeking him as a lifestyle. That’s why every gathering is focused on coming close to him, so he will come close to us (James 4:8).
Let’s practice what we preach.
We have three opportunities during the week to do just that. Our Prayer Room is designed to set ourselves before the Lord, to seek him and minister to him. While there is still some teaching, our Bible Study has shifted to less conversation and more prayer—we are praying through the scriptures as we read them. Our Worship Service gives the Lord space to speak and move how he wants as we seek him. The bottom line: We don’t just want to talk about it, we want to do it—we need and desire the nearness of his presence.
We’re asking that you make special efforts to join us in seeking the Lord.
