God moves powerfully through our feeble imperfect prayers.  He just does.  As Tim Keller has written, “Throughout the Old and New Testaments and church history, every spiritual awakening was founded on corporate, prevailing, intensive, kingdom-centered prayer. We cannot create spiritual renewal by ourselves, but we can “prepare the altar” and ask God to send his Holy Spirit to change our hearts, our churches, and our communities.”

Come to Room 122 anytime between 5-6pm Sunday to join in Kingdom Centered Prayer.  Please note this will be happening simultaneously with the Summer Fellowship Event that runs from 5-8pm.

Today a gentlemen in the church asked me about the canon of scripture.  After sending him over some resources, I thought it might be good to make them more widely available.  Enjoy and learn.

1.) The Canon of the New Testament, by FF Bruce

2.) New Covenant Scriptures —-by Dr. Charles E. Hill, is professor of New Testament at Reformed Theological Seminary in Orlando, Florida.

3.) In centuries past, the church was faced with the important task of recognizing which books belong in the Bible. The Bible itself is not a single book but a collection of many individual books. What the church sought to establish was what we call the canon of sacred Scripture. The word canon comes from a Greek word that means “standard or measuring rod.” So the canon of sacred Scripture delineates the standard that the church used in receiving the Word of God.  Read the entire article Tota Scriptura, by RC Sproul
