Our world is consistently beckoning us into despair, and challenging us... how do we respond? How do we face the onslaught of difficult news? Nehemiah offers us a living example of how to engage.

In this final episode on the Armor of God, be encouraged in your prayer life through Ashley's teaching. Prayer is not an afterthought, or something we can tack onto our spiritual armor. It is vital for victorious Christian living and in our spiritual battles.

In this teaching, Ashley helps us evaluate our perceptions of prayer based on how we were taught about prayer growing up.

She helps us reconsider the vital role of the Holy Spirit in our prayer life.

She helps us think about the presence of Jesus as we pray.

And, she gives some real-time practical ways to use the Word of God in our prayers. (Be prepared to push pause as Ashley talks you through prayer and asks questions to prompt considerations and prayers.)

Gospel Shoes of Peace

In this episode, Ashley teachers us about the shoes of peace.

Learn what it looks like to strap on our practical gospel shoes and move freely in our spaces with intentionality and purpose, at a reasonable pace.

The shoes are also representative of the gospel which will always move us into unity with the church, humility and love.

When we wear the Gospel Shoes of Peace, we must be prepared to serve as God's answer to people's prayers, to suffer with Jesus, and to grow and mature in zeal for the truth of the gospel.
