February Connection Resource

Wed, 01 Feb 2012 00:00 MST

In Live Faithfully: A Study in the Book of James, Lenya Heitzig and Penny Rose examine the quality of faith in the lives of believers in terms of attitudes and actions. James encourages believers that our walk and our talk should match. Many times Christians sit under great teaching each week but what they learn about how to live practically as Christians doesn't always translate into their behavior. Live Faithfully is a highly interactive and intensely personal journey through the book of James.

During February, you can obtain Living Faithfully for a gift or $10 or more to The Connection by calling 1-800-922-1888.

Pray for Marriages

Wed, 01 Feb 2012 00:00 MST

The blessing of marriage comes with its own set of challenges. As marriage roles are blurred and the culture around us rejects the biblical view of marriage, couples may find it difficult to understand, let alone fulfill, their responsibilities in the relationship. Join us in February during normal business hours in the express prayer chapel as we pray for marriages. You can also view marriage prayer requests online, or through the express prayer mobile app. If you would like intercession for your marriage, submit your request and others will be praying for you.

"In marriage, a man and woman are joined together in a way that cannot compare with any other relationship. It is not a tenuous arrangement that may be forsaken at will." –Alistair Begg
