A praying church is a powerful church.  A praying person is a fruitful person.  One of the most fruitful contributions made by true disciples on behalf of the body of Christ is to become an individual with an authentic prayer life.  What if a part of our prayer life was to fill our prayer time with intentional thanksgiving and blessings spoken on behalf of others?  Pastor Chris Jones urges the church to pray for each other, not only out of need or duty, but constantly, and out of a sincere heart and affection for one another.  It's a discipline that turns into love.  

What if the Lord had faithful gatekeepers that can welcome in the lost and the prodigals who would run into the abundant life God has prepared for them? Psalm 84 expresses "For a day in Your courts is better than a thousand. I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God than dwell in the tents of wickedness."
The Lord has been establishing "doorkeepers" and "gatekeepers" among us as we continue to steward the presence of the Lord among us. He has placed keys in our hand. Listen to this message that came out of a special encounter with the Lord at Father's House Augusta.

The widow of Zarephath found herself in the midst of famine and with only a handful of flour and a small jar of oil left to make one last loaf of bread. The Lord sent the prophet Elijah to her, and the rest of the story is that of the Lord's faithfulness and the widow's miraculous abundance. She didn't even know what was in her hand. Join Pastor Chris Jones as he urges the church to acknowledge what the Lord has been doing among us even though it may seem there is lack and destruction all around.

Luke 24 describes an encounter two disciples had with Jesus after His resurrection on the road to Emmaus. Once Jesus revealed Himself, he vanished, and his followers asked each other, "Didn't our hearts burn within us..." Closeness to Jesus left a burning within. Join us at Father's House Augusta for this special encounter from the Lord as hungry hearts began to burn in His presence.

There are so many voices, beliefs, and opinions out there that impact our hearts, minds, and worldview. It's evident throughout the New Testament that Christians are called to have a Gospel-centered worldview as we engage with culture. This question must be asked, "What do we allow to fill our hearts and minds that form our belief systems and worldview?" Join Pastor Chris Jones as we navigate the urgency of the Apostle Paul, that Christ would be "fully formed in us."

Isaiah 61 describes how Jesus would come to heal the broken-hearted, set captives free, and proclaim the year of the Lord's favor. Priscilla Jones encourages us all to take hold of the promises of freedom, deliverance, and comfort provided through Jesus, and then to join in on the calling to be proclaimers of the Good News and rebuilders of desolate places.
