The Biggest Story
During Holy Week, Crossway is offering free streaming access to The Biggest Story: The Animated Short Film through April 12, 2020. Based on the best-selling book by pastor Kevin DeYoung, the 26-minute film was created to show kids how stories in the Bible connect to Scripture’s overarching message about God’s glorious plan to redeem his rebellious people.

Trypraying - Keeppraying
The Trypraying 40 days of prayer is coming to an end on Easter Sunday, but this is no time to stop praying, it is a time to keep praying. There are many apps that will help you pray.
The one I use to organise my prayers is PrayerMate - search on your App Store, it is a great way to organise your prayers and you can also subscribe (for free) to mission organisations and PCI to get the latest Let’s Pray update.
Also try searching for “Prayer Ireland’ on your App Store, articles about prayer and a calendar where you commit to pray for 15 minutes at a particular time on a particular day. You can see how many other people have committed to pray at that time as well.
Day 35 - Trypraying 2020
the theme this week is purposes, and began yesterday with the promise -
“In the last days God says, ‘I will pour out my spirit on all people’.”
Today is Day 35 and the them is Liberating, how if we trust in Jesus, he can enable us to do what seems impossible.
Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. 2 Corinthians 3:17
You may ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it. John 14:14
Choose a Hymn/Song/Psalm
I thought it would be interesting if we could encourage each other through this little blog. I know that many of you are reading each day, so in the comments below why not write the name of a hymn/song/psalm that you like that deals with fear. You can add a reason why it means so much to you if you want, but the name of the song is the important part. We will maybe try other topics over the next few days if we get a response.
