I mentioned in a post about How to Plan a Daily Quiet Time with God that I had read Hal Elrod’s book, Miracle Morning: The Not-So-Obvious Secret Guaranteed to Transform Your Life (Before 8 am). Hal makes a bold claim – that you can absolutely change your life by developing the practice of a daily quiet time.
I agree with Hal, and I think this was ultimately Jesus’ idea…
Jesus would often go to some place where he could be alone and pray.
Luke 5:16 CEV
This past Sunday, I introduced a brand new message series digging into this one big thing and we’re going to spend the next four Sundays talking in detail about how to have a daily quiet time with God.
Here’s the first message in the series…
We also set up a landing page offering resources for the journey as people attend during the series.
Enjoy and feel free to share!

Hello Pastor Brandon,
There is no doubt in my mind that God lead me to you this morning in an email. I am 59, saved March of 2010 and loving every minute of sharing my testimony with whom ever Gods set in my path, I have two sons , one loving the Lord and one saying he does not exist. 7 grandsons and one granddaughter. I know, God has blessed me abundantly. I live in the Poconos of Pennsylvania and pray everyday to be able to talk to abused women, teenagers. I was Married to my high school sweetheart for 26 yrs until I saw him in bed with my best friend. Yes, I went through HELL for 2 yrs after. In 2005, I met my husband Ron that I have been married to now for 11 years. He is an amazing husband, but he does have an anger problem. Of course, I’m not the perfect wife either. Lol . I am the oldest of 5 children, 3 boys 2 girls. We were brought up in Allentown with practically no money. Praise The Lord, that he gave us the best grandparents in the world. My father was an abusive alcoholic. Not a day went by that I wasn’t best to protect the other kids. But believe me they went through their own hell with him now and then, all but my little sister. He wasn’t going to get near her without killing me first. I hated him so much but, deep inside my heart of course wanted his love. I would love to write a book. Well, in 2010 when I was learning the Bible and learning to forgive people so God could heal the parts of anger and pain my father was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer. That of course went through his entire body. My sister is an Rn and she took care of him so much. I offered to help her when she couldn’t be there, at first I seriously wanted to hurt this man, but then God worked his miracle and made us both love each other. I only had about a year and half of true father and daughter bonding before he passed away in 2012. But, everyday I light a candle and tell him how much I love and miss him. I try now to talk to people about The Lord whenever I can. I think the way I was raised without a whole lot, I can get through to poor, young or abused people more because I’ve been there. I am going to continue to follow you, and I praise the lord for putting you in my life.
