One of the mysteries of prayer is how misunderstood it is. We tend to shrink back from prayer because it seems impersonal or unreal. However, God has given us a great promise—when we’re still and take our anxieties and give them over to the living God—He will give us peace. This sermon will look to demystify prayer by focusing on the simple truth of how prayer helps us grow in prayer. We just need to pray as we can, and not as we can’t.

The body of the church has a different way of living. Peter describes this clearly in verse 3:8: unity, sympathy, love, tenderness, humility. Overall, we’re called to bless people even when people come against us.

When we play our roles within society, home, and church we have freedom as we set our hearts to serve. When we serve we actually are more free than demanding to get our own way. This is one of the secrets of the Christian life. As we trust God, He helps us even when we find ourselves in difficult situations.

We may be rejected in our culture but we have a community chosen by the living God.

Ridgeview Church Celebrates 5 years, hear people share how God has made an impact in our community, and lives.

Lets focus on what God has done the first 5 years of our church. We want to honor God and those who have helped us accomplish the mission God has given us.

We need to take the focus from our circumstance and refocus attention on the attributes of God. God is worthy of our Worship. We were created to Worship Him.
