{Marlys Burgett shared with us during class this week, drawing from her own experience crafting a prayer strategy from this study} Some of you have asked about the Prayer Strategy Cards that are located in the back of the book. I’m sure some of you have filled them out. But if not, I thought I …
No Words . . . Just Jesus
I've enjoyed having this past month's prayer verse sitting by the sink in my kitchen. As I look out my window onto the beautiful fall colors, I'm reminded that "His mercies are over all his works." On Tuesday Morning, we were invited to pick up a new prayer verse for the month of November. For …
Make Yourself at Home in Prayer
On Tuesday Morning our Prayer Team Coordinator, Katie Kafka, shared with us on prayer: I must say that for me personally, speaking about prayer is rather humbling. Somehow I don't feel qualified to do this. I am not a theologian. I haven't studied this topic for a committed length of time. I don't really consider …
Deliver Us
One final request hangs ominously in the last verse of Matthew’s record of the Lord’s Prayer, “deliver us from the evil one.” For if we need deliverance, that means we have been caught by an enemy. Yes, we have an enemy - the devil. He is the Father of Lies, a disrupter of peace, a twister …
Daily Rhythms of Gratitude
Since today’s lesson is a little shorter than the others, you get to hear from both of us. Even with the busy holiday weekend ahead, I hope you can find time to work through the questions at the end of the lesson and leave a comment to share. We’d love to hear from all of …
Knowing Whose We Are
Today we begin our online class on prayer. I hope when you join us each week you will not only read the lesson, but will use it as a springboard for further study. Each lesson will include homework questions to help you dig deeper into what we’ve talked about. I will also include a weekly …
Immerse Yourself in Prayer
Consider this quote about prayer: “It begins out of desperation – it grows into a discipline – and becomes a passion.” That desperate beginning certainly rings true. Who of us hasn’t hit--knees to the floor--and cried, “God, help!”? And that last part about being passionate for prayer? I love the way …
A Final TBT
Today we’re throwing it back to February of 2011 to this blog post written by Jill Trucke. I’ve had the privilege of serving with Jill for many years, initially as a member of her prayer team and more recently as a fellow member of the directional team. I love her heart for Jesus and prayer …
Facing Fear like Gideon
Before we begin our summer study here on the EquipHer blog, I'd like to take one final look back at the impact our bible studies had on our women this year. We've been privileged to share the stories of several ladies from our Tuesday Morning ministry in the past months, but EquipHer also has classes on Tuesday and …
Trust and Obey
by Jill Trucke We have learned if something is repeated multiple times in a Bible passage that is a hint of its importance. Isn’t that so true for our own lives too? How often does it seem like God reiterates his points to us through church on Sunday, and then again on Tuesday mornings, and …
