Prayer is a conversation with God - both talking and listening. If you're looking for a structured way to engage in prayer, the prayer wheel may be a good place to start (start with 1 minute a section or jump right into 5 minutes). Or use the ACTS method: 

• Adoration: Praising God for who He is
• Confession: owning our sins
• Thanksgiving: thanking God for all He has done
• Supplication: Pray for ourselves and others

No matter how you choose to engage, God is listening and can't wait to spend time with you.

Part of following Jesus is teaching others to follow Jesus - but a lot of us get nervous when thinking about sharing our faith! Consider the story method - ask someone their story, share your story, and share God's story. This tool can help you gain confidence in how to share the most important part of your life with other people. Remember, it's about relationship. Our relationship with Jesus has changed us to the point we want to tell others how to have what we have - a relationship with Jesus!

If your small group is interested in digging in to difficult conversations or want to help each other as they follow Jesus, we've compiled a list of potential questions you can ask one another. These questions are best used by individuals and groups who have done the work of building genuine, Christ-centered community and used voluntarily as a way to encourage one another.

Fasting is intended to take our eyes off of our physical needs/desires and subsequently fix our attention on God. Temporarily giving up other things that we often depend on (i.e. caffeine, television, etc.) can help us to refocus on our Creator and what He has for us. Check out this guide to fasting for some practical tips and a Biblical foundation for this practice.

Have you made the decision to follow Jesus? Awesome! The response given in Scripture is to be baptized. Learn more about that in our Baptism Booklet and sign up to be baptized on a Sunday morning or our next Baptism Sunday.
