Time with Abba
We believe that the primary way of communing with God is through His Word and the Spirit.
Time With Abba (TWA) is the practice of entering into our heavenly Abba's presence through His daily Word.
It is dedicated time to read, meditate on, pray, and respond to God's Word. TWA allows us to be fathered by our heavenly Abba, receiving His words of love, affirmation, and instruction. It is a time to exercise and reclaim the gift of obedience to the Father and to receive His inheritance
For the past two decades, our church has been reading the same passages daily and going through the entire Bible once a year. This daily feeding of God’s word has kept us in unity over the years and has become the foundation of our ministry and prayer life.
Will you join us in cultivating intimacy with our Abba together?
