Make It Known

James Granger

Colossians 4:2-6

Paul calls us to be devoted to prayer; to give our time to prayer. How committed to prayer are you? Pastor James Granger reminds us that there is nothing more worthy of our devotion than making Jesus known to others. We do this through praying for them to come to know Jesus and by taking steps to share our faith with others. Colossians 4:2-6
