Reflecting on the Sermon: 12/19/10

For our "out-of-towners," check out the sermon online if you get a chance during some of your down time...maybe when you wake up from your turkey induced coma on Christmas afternoon.  The sermon was from Romans 8:26-27 and dealt with prayer.  Rod focused on two points from these verses: 1. God only hears the prayers of his saints, 2. The Holy Spirit prays for Christians according to the will of God.  One good practical point he dealt with is the question, "If God is sovereign, why pray?".  The short version of the answer is 1. God commands it, and 2. God is sovereign over the ends and the means.  Listen to the sermon if you missed it to hear a more detailed answer.
