I guess when you break prayer down to it’s bare essence, what we’re doing is talking with God. But as with so many other parts of our relationship with God, there is a right way and a wrong way to pray. Do you know the difference? Too many people have the wrong motivation when they pray. Should we be trying to bet God too see things our way..... or should it be the other way around?

Bible scholars consistently rank Romans in the top three or four most significant books in the bible, and one of the reason is it’s practicality. These words were written two millenniums ago, yet are spot on for Christian living in 2019. As we again look at the ways our faith can minister to others, pastor Al will talk about benevolence - being kind and generous to others. What a great witness that is!

Today we continue our look at Romans fifteen. Pastor Al will spend the next four broadcasts discussing the ways we can use our faith to minister to others. First of all, we can be benevolent. That’s a word that isn’t used a lot these days, but the dictionary defines benevolence as being “well-meaning and kindly”. How does that translate to a demonstration of our faith? Let’s find out!

We are definitely nearing the finish line in our series through this wonderful book, and today we will be in chapter fifteen, verses twenty-two through twenty-five. The providence of God is the topic, and we certainly live in a world where God’s all encompassing power is questioned and rejected by many people. Well, the fact is, mankind’s opinion about God’s providence has nothing to do with the fact that God is in control of everything!

Planning is a good idea in the Christian life, as we’ll  see today on The Dwelling Place.  As we open Romans fifteen, the apostle Paul is about to lay out his plans for future ministry . Pastor Al Pittman has noticed a few principles we can glean from God’s providence in our lives, and he’ll share those momentarily.  We’re getting close to the finish line here in our study of Romans.  No travel guide is needed for this trip, just an open Bible and an open heart to allow the Spirit to lead.

Miracles, signs and wonders are sought after - but too often not the greatest of miracles - and that is a saved and changed life - a wasted life changed into a new and fruitful life is even a greater work!! So how is that accomplished? We’ll find out today on The Dwelling Place. Today’s message is titled “Life Pertaining To God”.

You can focus on a lot of different things and meet a lot of different needs - but what is man’s greatest need? Shouldn’t that be our focus?  Today we’ll be reminded that all ministry is by grace and is to be centered in the gospel. As we’ve seen so many times in recent years, straying from the truth is a commonplace occurrence.

Al Pittman is currently teaching verse by verse through the New Testament book of Romans. Today’s message is all about confidence. Not the bragging kind of confidence we see on display almost everywhere, but the confidence of knowing that God will do what he says he will do.  Again, to have that confidence, we need constant reminders.

As believers, we can have confidence in what God has promised, because we know that God never makes a promise He won’t keep. Pastor Al Pittman encourages us to discover and exploit the goodness of God in our lives as His people. We'll be in Romans fifteen.

We are nearing the end of a verse by verse journey through one of the greatest books in the bible - Paul’s letter to the Romans. Challenging is an understatement when it comes to the words we read here. Romans has been described as the Magna Carta of the Christian faith. Today we’ll continue in chapter fifteen, and a message all about abounding  hope!

About Al Pittman

Al was born in Panama City, Florida in 1955. His father was a career soldier, so the family traveled extensively. In 1973, when Al was seventeen years old, the family returned from a tour in Germany and settled in Colorado Springs. Soon after, Al realized God’s call on  his life and began serving in the music ministry as a bass guitarist with a Christian band  called, “The Rays of Light.” It was during this time that Al met Norma, and they were married on July 19, 1975. 

Al attended Nazarene Bible College in Colorado Springs, graduating in 1977 with a degree in Biblical Studies. In 1991 Al and his family moved to Albuquerque, New Mexico, and two years later he joined the staff of Calvary Chapel Albuquerque as an assistant pastor and co-worship leader. In the spring of 1997 the Lord called Al and his family back to Colorado Springs to pastor Calvary Worship Center. In 2006, Al earned his Master’s degree and in 2012 he earned his Doctorate degree in Ministry from Trinity Southwest University in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Al and Norma are the proud parents of three children, Renee, Nathan and Reggie, as well as proud grandparents. They covet your prayers for their family and ministry as they endeavor to live a life pleasing to the Father.
