Calvary Hill Church, Glassboro, NJ

Tags : 

Dear Father,

I thank You for the ministry of Calvary Hill Church of Glassboro, NJ.

I thank You for their strategy, which includes:

  • Train people to make contact and build relationships with non-church people, as well as new believers (John 14:1; Luke 19:1-10)
  • Teach people how to give a compelling verbal witness in the context of relationships (Jn. 3:1-15; 4:4-26)
  • Commit to ministering to the younger generation

This is a strategy that compliments the sharing of testimonies, stories of how You transform lives.  I ask that You create more and more stories within this church.  I ask that You encourage the people in the church to share their stories with one another.  I also ask that You lead a few to share their testimonies on the church website.  I ask that the sharing of those testimonies will connect online with non-church people, that the testimonies lead to a verbal witness, and that the testimonies reach the online younger generation.

Calvary Lutheran Church, West Chester PA

Dear Father,

A church is a greenhouse of faith, as Pastor Daniel Krewson shares in the video on the Calvary Lutheran of West Chester PA website.  You are growing us, making us more and more like Christ.

You, Father, do accept us just the way we are.  You also love us enough not to leave us that way.  Thank You that Pastor Daniel was given such wording!

Father, Daniel states that a church is plugged in to the power of God.  That power is revealed in the trnasformation of lives.  I ask that You encourage the folks at Calvary Lutheran to share their testimonies – first with one another and then with the West Chester community, courageously sharing on the church website.

Prison Worship Service Reflects Worship in Heaven

It was a room filled with drug dealers, kidnappers, assailants, thieves, lifers, the Holy Spirit, and goosebumps!

My word!  How many Christians have no idea what heaven will be like?

Sure.  Heaven is the place where God dwells.  Heaven is the place where Jesus Christ reigns.  The streets in heaven are paved with gold.  There will be no tears.

There also will be no pretention!  No artificiality!  No seeking to impress!  No worrying about your reputation!  We will worship Christ in heaven without a single thought of how we look in other people’s eyes!
