As we step into a new year, we’re all thinking about fresh starts, new goals, and big plans for personal growth. But what if the most important change we could make isn’t a new habit or resolution, but a new priority?

In this message, we introduce our 2026 church focus: PRAY FIRST — an invitation to make prayer our first response, not our last resort. Rooted in Matthew 9:6-13, we’re reminded that prayer isn’t about perfect words or religious performance. It’s about connection with God and placing Him first in every part of our lives.

In this message, we learn to always pray with:

Confidence and Worship

Peace and seeking God's Priorities

Faith for what you Need

Humility and Confession

Openness and with God's Power

As a church, we’re committing to grow our personal prayer lives and elevate prayer in our gatherings, our homes, and our city. This message sets the foundation for a year of spiritual renewal — starting in our hearts and flowing outward into everything God has called us to.
