“For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—<br />
have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse.” <span style="color: #0000ff;"><strong><a href="http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Romans+1:20&amp;version=NIV"><span style="color: #0000ff;">Romans 1:20</span></a></strong></span><br />

<strong>Take a look at the world around you.</strong> Where did it all come from? Cosmologists have<br />
recently arrived at the conclusion that the universe and even the multiverse (if there is one),<br />
required a ‘creation event’. If this is the case then, as Stephen Hawking put it, it would require<br />
the ‘hand of God’.  <span style="text-decoration: underline; color: #0000ff;"><em><strong><a href="http://powertochange.com/itv/spirituality/the-beginning-of-the-universe-and-god/"><span style="color: #0000ff; text-decoration: underline;">Watch here&#8230;</span></a></strong></em></span><br />

<p><em>Usef and I have been living together for 3 years, but now I don’t know…last night we had a fight and he started hitting me.  We set the limit that if it happens again, we’re over.  But I have nowhere else to go.

<p><strong>Sam Childers is no ordinary robber. </strong>Instead of robbing “stores or just ordinary people”, he<br />
chose to rob drug dealers. Sam relied heavily upon the crutches of drugs and the thrill of armed<br />
robbery. What did it take for him to take a step back and realize that living on the edge of<br />
danger is not really “living”? <em><strong> <a href="http://powertochange.com/itv/spirituality/weapon-of-choice/"><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="color: #0000ff; text-decoration: underline;">Watch here&#8230;</span></span></a></strong></em><br />

experience the mercy and freedom that has already been given to you?  <strong><a href="http://powertochange.com/itv/spirituality/mercy/">Watch here…</a></strong><br />

“Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You give a tenth of your spices—mint,<br />
dill and cumin. But you have neglected the more important matters of the law—justice, mercy and faithfulness. You should have practiced the latter, without neglecting the former.  <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="color: #0000ff;"><a href="http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew+23:23&amp;version=NIV"><span style="color: #0000ff; text-decoration: underline;">Matthew 23:23</span></a></span></span><br />

<p>&#8220;But the news about Jesus spread all the more widely, and crowds of people came to hear him and be healed from their diseases. But he would go away to lonely places, where he prayed. &#8220; <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="color: #0000ff;"><span style="color: #0000ff;"><a href="http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Luke%205:15-16&amp;version=GNT">Luke 5:15-16</a></span></span></span><br />

Jesus often went into the wilderness to pray. There he found solitude, peace and communion<br />
with the Father. In our society that boasts of increased connections through a multitude of<br />
communication devices, how do you approach the throne of grace? <strong>Where do you go to find<br />
<strong>your solitude, peace and communion? <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="color: #0000ff;"><a href="http://powertochange.com/itv/spirituality/where-is-your-wilderness/"><span style="color: #0000ff; text-decoration: underline;">Watch now</span></a></span></span></strong><br />

<p><strong><em>TMC Online Requests: Teen &amp; Youth </em></strong></p>
<p><em>I would like some encouragement with how to deal with my parents are fighting religious and spiritual beliefs.  I believe that we need Jesus and repentance for salvation but my pastor does not. I have issues with my dad and don’t know what to do.</em></p>
<p><em>I am really struggling with measuring up to the academic standards my mom demands that I reach.  I’m never good enough, or as good as my siblings. I really want to know more about knowing Christ.</em></p>
<p><em><strong> </strong></em></p>
<p><strong>TUESDAY</strong></p>
<p><strong>Ministry Healing</strong></p>
<p>Please pray for Brenda, a volunteer editor, as she and her husband are both dealing with ongoing health issues which are particularly bad this week. Please pray for relief, for the best treatment option from the doctors, and for  God&#8217;s protection from discouragement.</p>
<p><strong><em>TMC Online Requests: Health and Safety</em></strong></p>
<p><em>On a personal level, my niece in her mid-twenties was just diagnosed with a rare form of leukemia. My brothers family, her parents, are non-believers but they agreed that I could put Rachel in our Prayer Chain. I am hopeful that this opens a door to faith for all of them. (from a mentor)</em></p>
<p><em>“Springy”, in chat, is facing health complications. Last week she had surgery, and now has inflammation in the sac or membranes around both heart and lungs, and this is very painful.  Please pray for relief. (from a mentor)</em></p>
<p><strong><em> </em></strong></p>
<p><strong>WEDNESDAY</strong></p>
<p><strong>Ministry Creativity</strong></p>
<p>Please pray for our Creative team as they create short evangelistic films, do interviews, create online articles, and training material. This is a fast-growing need in our ministry, as people write in for mentors because of what they read and watch on our sites.</p>
<p><strong><em>TMC Online Requests:  Family and Finances</em></strong></p>
<p><em>I have a difficult relationship with my mother.  I’m concerned that her selfishness is hurting my younger siblings.  I’m  trying to decide if talking to mom is a good way to resolve some things.</em></p>
<p><em>I have a lot of hardships right now. I am still searching for a job ever since I was laid off.  I found a good training seminar and went to orientation and got paid to go.  As soon as I told this to the unemployment office, they made it sound like I was doing something wrong and now a lawyer is involved and they might have charges filed against me . </em></p>
<p><em> </em></p>
<p><strong>THURSDAY </strong></p>
<p><strong>Ministry Training</strong></p>
<p>Please pray for inspiration and direction as we rethink our mentor application process and improve our online training for them.  The goal is to be able to handle hundreds of applicants at one time, rather than only a dozen.</p>
<p><strong><em>TMC Online Requests: Marriage and Relationships</em></strong></p>
<p><em>I am married to a sex addict. Recently I found out he had been unfaithful for 3/4s of our 23 year marriage. We have been doing individual counseling for almost a year and just started couples counseling. Yesterday, my husband told me to stop trying to figure him out and look only at my own issues. To me, this feels like he is afraid for me to understand why he does what he does and it feels very controlling.</em></p>
<p><em>I’m worried because my boyfriend is growing distant. We often don&#8217;t see each other except at work, and he seems to distance himself from me. I don’t want to lose him.  I’m 21 and he is 18 and still in high school.  What can I do?</em></p>
<p><em> </em></p>
<p><strong>FRIDAY</strong></p>
<p><strong>Ministry Sharpening</strong></p>
<p>For God to continue to help us as a team, to fine tune our roles as we embark on ways to work “smarter” together and streamline our efficiency.</p>
<p><strong><em>TMC Online Requests: Spiritual Growth</em></strong></p>
<p><em>I am  depressed and overwhelmed with life issues.  I just rededicated my life to the Lord; I need direction and spiritual growth.</em></p>
<p><em>I don&#8217;t see a point to life. I don&#8217;t like to do much. I am most always sad unless I am traveling somewhere. I think I am fat but I know i&#8217;m skinny/average. Nothing excites me. I have felt this way for many years. The older I get the worse life gets. I am 22. What to do?</em></p>

<p style="text-align: left;"><strong>“Billions served”</strong> is McDonald’s slogan.  But even this famous chain had to start somewhere – one customer at a time.  Evangelism is no different. In this big, big world it seems as if our individual<br />
efforts are too small to make any noticeable difference.  What would it take to make Heaven’s<br />

right next to “bless you” after someone sneezes or the nonchalant “how are you?” to our<br />
neighbourhood barista.  Let&#8217;s believe that our words can mean so much more than a set of<br />
muttered phrases. <a href="http://powertochange.com/itv/spirituality/why-i-say-happy-easter/"><span style="color: #0000ff; text-decoration: underline;">Watch here&#8230;</span></a></p>
