We meet every Tuesday at 7PM ⏰ at High Street Church in Springfield, Missouri—and you can always join us live on YouTube ▶️. Tune in, grow in your faith, and connect with others on the journey! 🙌
Familiarity can blind us to the very things that once amazed us about God. Maybe you remember a time when faith felt fresh - Somewhere between then and now, wonder can fade into routine and disappointment can leave us feeling numb without us even noticing.
This week, we'll talk about what causes that shift, how to be honest with God about it, and practical ways to feel your faith come alive again.

Putting Prayer First | Developing a Life of Prayer
What if prayer became more than our last resort?
We all know what it feels like to pray desperate prayers when life gets difficult. But what would it look like to develop a life of prayer before the desperation comes?
Throughout Scripture, we see that prayer changes things. Jesus modeled a life of prayer, and we’re called to do the same. If we want to see a move of God, our prayer life needs to match the vision we have for what God wants to do.
Prayer is not just an event—it is a life we get to develop.
In this message, we’ll look at five ways we can develop a life of prayer:
Have a Time — Make prayer a priority and create space to meet with God.
Give God Thanks — Learn to recognize and thank God for what He is doing.
Open Your Heart to What God Has — Bring your desires to God while surrendering to His will.
Believe God Can Do It — Pray with faith and trust that God is able to move.
Keep Showing Up — Develop a consistent prayer life, even when you don’t immediately see the results.
We’ll also look at the prayer of Jabez in 1 Chronicles 4:9–10 and how one simple prayer can teach us to ask God to bless us, expand our territory, guide us, and keep us through trouble and pain.
The goal isn’t simply to pray more when we need something from God. The goal is to develop a life where prayer is our first response—not our last resort.
“Never stop praying.” — 1 Thessalonians 5:17
