"When we see how deeply our own sin runs—like the unforgiving, debt-ridden servant standing before the king—it refocuses our eyes on the only one who can offer us forgiveness." – Autumn Kern

"Self-centered pastors think the church revolves around them, but Bible-centered pastors believe that all of life revolves around God and His revealed Word." – Nate Pickowicz

God invites His children to talk with Him, yet our prayers often become repetitive and stale. How do we have a real conversation with God? How do we come to know Him so that we may pray for His will as our own?
In the Bible, God speaks to us as His children and gives us words for prayer—to praise Him, confess our sins, and request His help in our lives.
