Next Week's Sermon
Give us Love, Boldness and Healing have been our prayers for the first three weeks. Next week we'll ask for one final gift as we explore another of Paul's prayers for one of his churches (the Ephesians). We've ALREADY been given all we need for lives of godliness, but we need spiritual wisdom and insight to be aware of what has been gifted to us already: God's hope, riches and power!
