Hey everyone!
This past Sunday I had the unbelievable privilege of sharing a message from Matthew 6:5-15 on Jesus' teaching on prayer. If you know Cheryl and me at all, you know this is a subject we are passionate about! The feedback was tremendous and it is so exciting to think that God is moving and working among our people to touch off a revival of prayer at The Ridge. The podcast is available here if you were unable to attend, or if you are one of our many out-of-state or out-of-country allies.
I also made a CD/MP3 guiding our people through how to have a daily prayer time based on the model that Jesus gave His disciples. You can download that here if you want to begin the discipline of daily prayer and need a jump start.
Please join us in praying for revival among God's people. It begins by us spending time with the Father and allowing our hearts to be "synced" with His.

American Idol, Girls
Ok so they are doing things a little different this year but here is how I think it will shake out for the girls.
Kendra Chantelle - Where the junk did she come from? Zowie! What a voice.
Naima Adedapo - Very cool, old-school jazz singer vibe. My favorite right now.
Lauren Turner - The best of the Laurens. Didn't care for her song but she sang the heck out of it.
Lauren Alaina - Had her pegged for a finalist since her first audition. She's a powerhouse who makes it seem effortless. She has that Steel Magnolias beauty parlor flavor when she talks but her voice is amazing.
Pia Toscano - Props for covering the Pretenders when everyone else was doing their best diva impressions. She wasn't perfect but it was cool.
Rachel Zevita - This year's Siobhan Magnus. Weird. Quirky. Cool raspy edge to her voice but has that little hint of "I-could-go-pyscho-and-kill-you-all-at-any-moment" glimmer in her eyes. Scary but I think she'll be entertaining to watch.

What Comes into Your Mind When You Think About God? | New Demonstration
Studying today in preparation for preaching March 13th on prayer. I was exploring the reasons most Christians do not pray, even though Jesus told His disciples that "at all times they ought to pray and not lose heart." (Luke 1:18, NASB)
I believe when it comes down to it we don't pray because we don't trust the heart of God. I came across this in my research. Great word from Tozer on how important our view of God is:
