Today we joined FamilyLife and other Campus Crusade for Christ staff for a day of prayer. Here in Little Rock we met at the Friendly Chapel Nazarene Church. Our day started with pastor Paul Holderfield, Jr. welcoming us and giving a history of his church and its mission. The focal point was his father's personal testimony and how God used him to start this church and its service to the people in this inner city environment of North Little Rock. A wonderful testimony of God's salvation and redemption for man!
Dennis Rainey then led us in a time of Scripture study and personal reflection. His key verse was, "Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good." (Romans 12:21 ESV) it was a refreshing talk about personal holiness being necessary to identify evil, understand how to deal with temptation, and to respond in goodness.
My special highlight for the day was praying over the personal requests of friends and partners in our ministry.
