Have you ever wanted something so desperately that despite the hindrances and setbacks you persevered until you had it in your grasp? Well, walking with Jesus is similar. Though the road to the finish line can be long, frustrating, bumpy, and filled with so many ups and downs, you can determine to fashion your life like the Apostle Paul and keep your eyes on the prize. God will give you the strength to keep on going and to finish strong.

God wants you to have a clear vision for your life! God didn’t save your life just to leave you aimless in life. This four-day study is going to equip you to discern the way God has wired you so that you can focus your effort on what matters most and take hold of the abundant life God has promised you.

We face spiritual battles daily, and the way to face them and fight them is on our knees in prayer! Let's look into various instances in Scripture where prayer was done to respond to challenges people were facing. When battles come, we strengthen ourselves through prayer, crying out to Him who provides relief, refuge, and victory.

No local church of Jesus Christ progresses beyond its leaders. When Paul made his farewell to the elders he had trained in the church in Ephesus in Acts 20, he presented the record of his ministry with them as an example of true spiritual leadership that faithfully built up the church. As Alistair Begg explains, the transparency, integrity, and urgency he modeled are an example to the church’s leaders today.
