Pray for new life in Christ!

We had such an encouraging day. It was completely filled with prayer and reading of the bible and talking about God. 

In the evening, we had summit studies and my friend Dylan has been coming and has had many great questions about the Gospel. After the bible study, Dylan, myself, and a couple of friends went back to my house and talked about the gospel some more and shared our testimonies, and Dylan said he'd ask God to reveal Himself to him tonight. 

My friends and I felt the Spirit's presence at work in the room and felt deeply stirred in prayer for him. 

Please pray that God would bring spiritual life to Dylan and break through the hardness of his heart and make him a new creation in Christ!

Night Shift

It's 3:30am, I'm sleeping, and I hear "Addison, can you walk around with Isaiah?". This is no surprise to me. Most nights or early mornings I'll walk around with Isaiah for 1-2 hours.

It's been a great experience. It's like he's my accountability partner, calling me to keep watch, to be wakeful in prayer, awake for nightly vigil. So I spend time with Jesus, pray for people, listen to sermons and the bible, and write sermons.

I've recently started working on September's sermon series (tentatively) called "Crucial: Prerequisite lessons to living in Christ on Campus".

Tonight I'm writing a sermon about how we all have to take the Big Exam one day, that great day before God's judgement seat. And the only way to pass is to go to the examiner before the exam and say "I can't do it on my own! I need to meet with you in office hours."
Likewise, Nicodemus, the scholar, thought he could pass the Big Exam, but Jesus told him that he could not pass unless he was born-again.

Please pray for students to trust in Christ alone as they anticipate the Big Exam.
