Get Connected I Northwest Family Church

Relationships. That is what Christian faith is really all about; a growing relationship with God and meaningful relationships with others. These are the values that help people take their first spiritual steps after becoming a follower of Jesus Christ. Below are some options for getting connected at Northwest Family Church.

Small Groups
In order to fully experience life at Northwest Family Church we suggest that you get involved with one of our many small groups. We have a brand new season of small groups that will be launched in the fall.

One Prayer Devotional:

Day 3 - The Power of Prayer

Nothing of eternal consequence ever happens apart from prayer.
I don’t remember when I first heard that quote, but I know I’ve heard and repeated it numerous times since. More importantly, do I believe it? Do we?
I’m a natural ‘doer’ – ie, I’m quick to respond to a need, a problem, even a crisis, with an answer. It might not be the right answer, but it is an answer, or an action. Rarely do I pray first. That’s a discipline I’m constantly working on, which is where another discipline – the discipline of fasting – comes in. More on that later – but let’s start with the power of prayer.
Someone once said “if you use your talents, you get what you can do; if you use other people’s talents, you get what they can do; but if you pray, you get what GOD can do.” The purpose is that we might see what God wants to do in and through NFC: fulfilling our vision by being the hands of Jesus in Lake Zurich, Lake County, and beyond.
As you pray today, pray for God’s power – His might – to break through whatever strongholds (a Biblical word that has really taken a beating in many circles) are currently at work preventing genuine revival.
