What I want for us as a church this summer, I couldn’t think of a better word to describe it than “abide.”

I want us to stay near to Jesus individually in word, prayer, and fasting that leads to deep and sweet fellowship with him so that we bear fruit and prove to be his disciples.

The warmth, the people, the new life always seems to invigorate my prayer life as I go for runs, take my kids to parks, and spend time outside with family and friends. So I want to encourage you to simply listen to these verses in Colossians and do them in a two-fold way. We’ll call this our South Cities Summer Prayer Challenge.
