For this Sunday here’s what you can do: Pray for new believers who recently got saved. In the past I wrote “This Sunday at Church: Pray for unsaved recent visitors to be saved” and a few weeks ago also to “Pray for any long time church goer not yet a Christian would be saved.” It turns […]
I wrote a thing for my friend while he is overseas.

Note: This is a guest post since presently I am overseas. This is by Daniel M. Klem. His blog be found here. This is part of a series he’s doing for his blog! This is definitely longform, but I pray it’s worth it for you! I am a youth pastor and elder for my congregation. I […]
This Sunday at Church I want to encourage you to do the following: This Sunday at Church: Praying for others’ Walk with God. Loving others at church is important. The last few months I’ve been convinced that praying for others with their walk with God is probably the most important and most loving thing you […]
This Sunday at Church I want to encourage you to do the following: Get to know New Members at Church. In this ongoing series I have written on the need to Praise God for New Members in your Church. We can go further by trying to get to know any new individuals who got voted in as […]
Establish the need: Do you go through the motions with parenting or have you thought about it deeply the gift and goal of parenting? Purpose: In this series we will go over three truths that are foundational for addressing difficulties in parenting so that we have the right perspective of what Biblical parenting is. The […]
For this Sunday here’s what you can do: Pray for the Gospel to advance in Turkmenistan. Most Americans do not know much of the countries in Central Asia. They are the countries that ends with “stans.” Think Kazakhstan, Kirgizstan, Uzbekistan, etc. But the ones I don’t know about the most is Turkmenistan. Its been called […]
I have encountered many over the years who think they’re good enough or that just going to church is enough to please God, attending each week, maybe even going to Bible studies. It can be one of the hardest deceptions to break through.
I have even had several conversations about Ravi Zacharias this past week, someone who spoke in churches and Christian events making good cases for faith in Christ, yet he apparently was unrepentant through his last breath.
May we pray for those who attend but never really follow Christ.

For this Sunday here’s what you can do: Pray for any long time church goer not yet a Christian would be saved. In the past I wrote “This Sunday at Church: Pray for unsaved recent visitors to be saved.” I’ve been thinking tonight about prayer for those who are not saved and yet regularly go […]
I spent about a year as a new Christian with the belief that my little church home was the best church that had everything figured out.
Today, I have friends across the theological spectrum, we have sent each other families who were looking for a better fit for their beliefs and gifting, and we regularly do events together and pray for each other.
The Body of Christ is better when we all get along!
(Yes. Watch out for the wolves in sheep’s clothing. But also remember Whitefield on Wesley: that he wouldn’t see Wesley in heaven because Wesleywould be closer to the throne.)

This Sunday at Church I want to encourage you to do the following: Being Grateful for other Members of other Local Churches. I think one’s local church is important. In fact this series on the Church for the last few years now have focused on that. Lately I have been thinking about how sinful we […]
On the holiday the USA celebrates freedom, how about a throwback to my first ever post on this blog 12.48 years ago (give or take). I took a look at the religion/relationship debate, and the implication is what our freedom in Christ means for us.
Daniel
That’s right. I love religion, and I hate religion. One of the first sayings (not the first, mind you) I learned as a young believer in Christ was “I hate religion” because “It’s a relationship!” Everyone knows that religion is a trap that constrains all who practice from truly knowing God! Everyone knows that religion […]
I also know and know of pastors under persecution who cherish any books that help them pastor and preach better. It reminds me of the early Church, clinging to letters from the Apostles, including some we know have been lost over 2000 years. Many books even keep us centered and away from heresy, so let us loft up our persecuted brothers and their books!
Daniel
For this Sunday here’s what you can do: Pray for the Persecuted Church’s Pastors’ library not be destroyed. This might seem like a rather peculiar prayer requests afterall there’s also things more important than books like lives, free from persecution, etc. We have covered those things as part off our Sunday prayer posts over the […]
Do we truly love the Lord our God with all our hearts, souls, minds, and strengths? Maybe I can help with the mind part, at least! This is Daniel M. Klem, apparent poet, reluctant yet passionate Disciple (Peter?), and foolish man attempting to understand theology!
