When we pray for a particular person or subject, over time we get God’s heart and thoughts for it. One huge example of this for me (Theresa) personally was my journey with praying specifically for our President.

This has been a year of strengthening what remains. After the devastation we experienced last year, we have been able to help undergird and stabilize those who have chosen to remain to “partner in the Great Commission by advancing 24/7 prayer with worship and proclaiming the beauty of Jesus and His glorious return.” We are […]
Many of us are concerned that this vaguely written bill will also open a door for all “reproductive freedom” including transgender transition surgeries for minors without parental consent.
