The Grand Expedition
Join us as we embark on a prayer expedition that has been designed to strengthen our prayer lives, so we can successfully battle for the hearts, minds and souls of our children and grandchildren. During this expedition, we will enjoy rich narratives at selected destination points in Luke’s gospel. We will sift through stories from Jesus’ ministry, all the while being led along dirt roads, under olive groves, through the Temple gates and into our own hearts. We will uncover biblical truths for unleashing the power of prayer and garner applicable tools for stepping-up our prayer lives. We will encounter present-day grandparents whose faith stories inspire even the most cynical among us to believe miracles still happen.

LORD, Help My Unbelief
Mark 9:14-29 Have you ever been embarrassed—flushed cheeks and all—by a movie’s leading character? That’s how I feel every time I read Mark’s account of “The Healing of the Boy with the Unclean Spirit” (Mark 9:14-29). I want to signal, "Hush!" before the dad has a...
Praying for our Grandchildren’s Earthly Fathers
Abba Father, Today, we pray and give thanks for our grandchildren’s earthly fathers. We pray that, like David, they will be men after your own heart, men walking in obedience to your will (Acts 13:22). Let them draw deeper into Christ’s love every day. We pray they...
Praying God Protects our Grandchildren from Evil
Heavenly Father, The enemy is a counterfeit fisherman. He is angling for his prey. He cast his lies and jiggles his bait, all the while, hoping to reel-in another unsuspecting soul. Heavenly Father, please rescue our children and grandchildren. Rescue them from being...
