BLESS: Begin with Prayer

This past Sunday, Pastor Chris Millar launched our summer series, BLESS, by looking at our very first habit: Begin with Prayer. Walking through Jesus’ ministry in Luke and the early church in Acts, we see that real mission is always birthed in prayer. It’s not just a religious chore; it’s a posture of gospel dependency that aligns our hearts with God's heart for the lost. When we couple a devotion to God’s Word with consistent prayer, we guard ourselves against cold moralism. True prayer turns our hearts inside out, transforming how we love and pursue those close to us but far from God.
