The Power of Prayer

James Rochford
James 5:13-20

James emphasizes to his readers the importance of prayer in a Christian's life. We should pray at all times, when things are going well and during suffering and trials. Prayer can bring rest and healing and can unleash God's power, but we must pray according to God's will and not come to Him with conditions or an expectation that God will give us everything we want.

The Prayer of a Servant

Mike Sullivan
James 5:13-20

In Jesus, we see a perfect model of a life of ministry dependent of the Holy Spirit, rooted in prayer. Christians today are also called to love and serve others through the power of the Holy Spirit, who supplies all we need when resources and power are otherwise scarce. Three key attitudes when asking God to help us serve others are to have a willingness to serve, to recognize our helplessness, and to be shamelessly audacious in prayer.

Two Ways

Conrad Hilario
Psalms 1:1-6

The book of Psalms teach us how to relate honestly to God, how to praise and thank Him, and how to affirm what is true in the midst of difficult circumstances or emotions. In Psalm 1 we see that the primary characteristic of the righteous is that their lives are rooted in and nourished by God's Word. This requires making time for reading scripture, minimizing distractions, and prioritizing quality over quantity.

Reflecting the Light of God

Dennis McCallum
2 Corinthians 4:1-18

When people first meet Christ, part of God lives inside of them. Why then do Christians go on sinning? How do people become more Christ-like? The answer is in the breaking down of the outer man. God oftentimes uses circumstances and suffering to lead His followers into becoming more and more like Christ.
