I've had the privilege of going through my dad's old files and sermons as I was preparing for the Free Your Mind series. He gave me everything he had on the renewed mind and the battlefield of the mind and related topics. Incredible, incredible resource.

I pulled an article out of one file that had been clipped from Christianity Today around 1983 or 1984. It isn't really about the transformed mind... but it is. It's almost 40 years old but was so helpful in grabbing up a bunch of things that are happening in our lives and church and looking at them from another perspective:

new year (and all the goals we like to set to get things done)
new series (about getting our minds right) and;
new week of fasting and praying (starting with Deep Roots on Sunday night)

““Prayer must become your method, not just a good activity in which you engage from time to time!” ”

— see attached article

And so, as we prepare for another week of prayer and fasting, I encourage you to read this article slowly and maybe twice. Let it sit in your heart and let's begin to practice "praying our way through the day".

Learning to pray unceasingly with you,
Pastor Tracy

Where is your head at these days?

Ever feel like you have to fight just to keep moving through your day? Like there is more struggle going on in your thoughts than you even know how to express?

Yeah, it's not just you. In fact, scripture talks a lot about the battle that is going on in your mind right now. So, if my mind is a battlefield, how do I come out the winner?

I'm glad you asked! Our new series, Free Your Mind, is about exactly that. We're going to work together to identify the battlefield, the strongholds, the weapons and the captives in this struggle and learn how the Bible teaches us to be more than conquerors.

You and I need to understand and live these truths. It's a fight worth taking on and will be a game changer in 2021. Come with us as we dig into 2 Corinthians 10:3-5 and where it leads us... and invite someone to join you. It's so easy to share our livestream!

But why wait until Sunday to get started. Philippians 4:8 says:

"Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things."

So, I've collected the testimonies that came in on Sunday and I've put them into their own blog post. Ready to be encouraged and fix your thoughts on some excellent and praiseworthy things? Go ahead and click the link below.

Excited for lives transformed by renewed minds!
Pastor Tracy
