But what actually happened? We will read two of the Gospel accounts of that moment as we seek to understand what happened, why it happened, what it meant for the disciples who were there, and what we should learn from that singular moment in time.

David’s reflections on the Lord, as his shepherd, is a well-known image. But is it possible that our sense of familiarity with this psalm could leave us missing out on some of the richness of what David shares?

But what did James mean by the certainty that comes in praying "the prayer of faith?"Most of All praying should be offered in faith. But what did James mean by the certainty that comes in praying “the prayer of faith?” Most of us pray. We bring our requests and concerns to the Lord. And, we pray “in faith.” That is, the prayers are anchoring in our trust in the one who answers. In his epistle, James wrote about “the prayer of faith” (James 5) and how it is effective in ushering in the answer we are hoping for. That expression–“the prayer of faith”–only appears one time in the Bible. So, what did James mean? How do we pray that way? How can we be assured of having answers to what we have asked of the Lord? We’ll spend a few hours online, on Thursday evening, August 13th, (6:30-8:30 pm) to seek to understand what James meant . . . and how that understanding could shape the way we pray. more August 13, 2026 6:30 pm - 8:30 pm(GMT-04:00) Undoubtedly you have heard about "the prodigal son."

But that we are familiar with the phrase doesn’t ensure that we understand the point Jesus was making in telling that story. You might be surprised to discover what Jesus was doing in telling that story as we take a closer look.
