Discipline of Prayer: Always Connected

How to Communicate Christ
This pamphlet is basically being written to show people how others are communicating their Christian faith. I hope this report can be helpful, because I know there are so many Christians that are struggling with their faith and how to communicate it. Also it would be quite interesting to discover how improving your communication in your faith might prevent some of the violence that is taking place around the world. But I will begin with questions for reflection on this topic.

Instructions... Guess Work or God's Work?
I love recipe books...looking through them, collecting them, and occasionally even using them. I suppose just having them is rather like a safety net. It's always mind assuring to know they are there just in case... But unless they are opened up and used, all the secrets inside will forever remain hidden from view. It will benefit no one. Are you hiding your hidden treasures from view?

Is It Real?
If any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. --2 CORINTHIANS 5:17, KJV
It may have happened to you at a Billy Graham Crusade. Perhaps it was during a telecast of The 700 Club or during a conversation with a friend. Maybe you were alone with God when it happened. But some-how, someplace deep within, you believed that Jesus of Nazareth, God’s Son, died for your sins and rose from the dead to be your Lord and Savior. Then that belief grew into action, and you called out, “Jesus, I take You as my Savior. I surrender to You. Be the Lord of my life!”

Who Is He?
“What do you think about the Christ? Whose son is he?” --MATTHEW 22:42, NCV
After three years of ministry, hundreds of miles, thousands of miracles, and innumerable teachings, Jesus asks, “Who?” Jesus bids the people to ponder not what He has done, but who He is. It’s the ultimate question of the Christ: Whose Son is He? Is He the Son of God or the sum of our dreams? Is He a figment of our imagination?
