SurgeMORE-September 2022

Bible Reading: Luke 11:1-13 As we round off our Surge series today, I want to challenge you to pray! You see, the conversations of more will not merely happen based on the strivings, schemings and strategies of human wisdom- it will happen based on the intervention of heaven on the earth.
