About the Series

April/May 2024

As followers of Jesus—and as Jesus transforms our hearts—we yearn to align our lives with His way and His Word, yielding to His design, His plans, and His will for our lives as we live out our faith and share the hope of Christ.

Through the lens of God’s Word, this series unpacks what is good and true amidst the cultural pressures of today’s world. Exploring topics like identity, mental health, politics, marriage, family, and conflict, each message provides valuable insight and practical wisdom to help us uphold biblical principles with a Christlike posture as faith and culture intersect.

Therefore, brothers and sisters, in view of the mercies of God, I urge you to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God; this is your true worship. Do not be conformed to this age, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may discern what is the good, pleasing, and perfect will of God (Romans 12:1–2).

Praying with Purpose & Perspective

From Series: "Praying with Purpose & Perspective"

Core Class #3 | January 11, 2019 Taught by Mike Graham // Bible Center Church --- Studying prayer is like studying a mountain. It is helpful to stand at a distance and philosophically observe its size, shape, and features. Potential difficulties and dangers can be assessed, debated, and studied. This knowledge is useful, but will not satisfy the one who wants to touch the rocks, climb the walls, and see the world from on top of the mountain. At times, we need to step back and look at prayer from a big-picture point of view. At other times, we must grab our pick ax and approach the mountain. In this study, we will do both. We will scan the mountain from a distance and go up close, look at its features, and feel the wind on our face as we climb. We have much to learn from those who have climbed this mountain before us. Throughout our study, there are numerous thoughts and quotes from saints who have climbed with vigor and passion and have left a roadmap of their journey and a journal of their experiences. All of us need to work on our prayer life. All of us need to make sure that our lifeline is untangled, free of debris, and fully connected to the Lord. Join me in exploring God’s Word on the subject of prayer.
