Values: Presence - Joel Wade

This week, Joel (Central Service) kicks off our teaching series on our values and vision. We look at the value of ‘Presence’ being the foundational value for any true revival. Seeking God’s presence requries us shifting the mindset of prayer from obligation to orientation, cultivating a deep hunger and thirst for Jesus as our life’s ultimate goal. It also demands a shift from relying on feelings to friendship, building a sustained, commitment-based relationship with God, independent of emotional highs. Finally, we must move from a faith of consuming to contending, actively contending in prayer for the Church’s purity and the powerful advance of the Gospel.
