Brothers, Over the last several weeks, a handful of us (5–7 men at any given time) have been walking through a structured, eight-week journey into prayer, built around Scripture, spiritual habits, reflection, and the simple desire to truly know God, not just know about Him. I need to share this with all of you because what has happened in my life and inside this circle of men has been nothing short of transformative. 🔥 What Changed For Me Personally For the first time in my life, I feel like I actually understand what it means to converse with the Creator of the Universe. Not recite words. Not send up quick requests when life gets messy. But actually speak, and listen, to the God who made me (isn’t it CRAZY that we can do this?) It feels like a doorway that used to be cracked open has now been blown off the hinges. I learned that prayer isn’t an add-on to faith, it is the relationship. Once that clicked, everything changed. It gave purpose, direction, and intimacy to my time with God. I no longer pray only “when I feel like it.” I’m learning to build a relationship through rhythm and discipline focused on Scripture, silence, confession, and praise. I’ve been overwhelmed by a new desire to praise. I never realized how central adoration is to understanding God’s nature. And, in one of those moments only God can orchestrate, I recently met a Christian law professor who actually teaches about praise in the vocation of law. Our conversation showed me the deep connection between praising God and understanding His will for your life. Connecting those dots flipped a switch in me. My relationship with God feels… real now. And because prayer has begun to shape me from the inside, I can finally start leading my family spiritually in the way I never understood before. My conversations with God now spill over into my conversations with my wife, my kids, and even my work. Prayer is changing the way I carry myself. Not perfectly, but honestly. 🔥 What Changed Within Our Group

Hi Team, My Mother-In-Law passed away this morning. So things will be a little crazy for us the next couple weeks to months. That being said I will see you all Saturday morning!
