Monterey Bay Academy Week of Prayer

This week I am at Monterey Bay Academy just south of Santa Cruz, CA.  It is an amazing campus here right on the ocean!  Today was the opening day of the week of prayer that will run each day this week, concluding on Sabbath morning.  As we were discussing the direction of the week it was decided that the issues of addictions should be addressed.

In this day and age, addictions run rampant with everything from external addictions such as drugs, alcohol, video games, and internet to internal addictions that are based in pride and lust.  Jesus says that you shall know the truth and the truth will set you free (John 8:32).  What is the prerequisite for knowing the truth?  He simply says that we must abide in the Word.  Jesus is the Word and we can read about Him in the Bible.  As a result, we’re going to be diving deep this week. 

If you’re reading this and you are a student or teacher at MBA, please let me know if you have any questions or comments that you’d like me to address.

As I mentioned today, I don’t know the end from the beginning, but I do know that Jesus will show up in powerful ways.  I am simply stoked to see Him reveal His good and perfect will to us this week.

Blessings to you Monterey Bay Academy!  Thank you for having me here!
