Prayer

"The cultural captivity of the church has meant that the church is more likely to reflect the individualism of Western Philosophy than the value of community found in Scripture." -Soong-Chan Rah.

Tonight we will first and foremost, thank God, for the gracious action he has already taken in and through these prayer meetings. Then we will dive into the importance of ministering to Africa (and America, our team, our family, our friendships, etc) as a community that needs to be restored to God.

This will lead us into our next topic which will be pride. We will be praying that our pride can be fostered into desire and motivation, which God will use. How? Through humility and service. That again, must require us to look past the individual and into the community of believers/nonbelievers.
