Articles and News from My 18 Years as Prayer Coordinator
I’ve been writing about prayer (communication with God) the past couple weeks. Most people struggle with prayer. I’m writing about ways to make it more natural and simpler.
Another idea that enhances your communication with God is making lists about various areas of your life or areas you want to talk to God about in the future. Praying through list helps focus your prayers. Something about list that is great is it is easy to keep track of the prayers God has answered over…

Answer us, O Lord, answer us, so these people will know that you, O Lord, are God, and that you are turning their hearts back again! (1 Kings 18:36)
At Cross Church, we want to see God do things in such a…

Remember God hears the short prayers you offer throughout your day too; like while you're driving, exercising, working, or eating, and yes, He'll answer them, too.…
"The next morning Jesus awoke long before daybreak and went out alone into the wilderness to pray." (Mark 1:35) I've always loved Mark 1:35. It motivates me to seek God early in the morning. But I never fully appreciated it until I examined the phrase: "the next morning."
So what happened the day before? The context is the key to this text. Jesus had a long day the day before. He preached a sermon. He cast out a demon. And he healed a multitude of people. As a pastor,…
