How we approach someone defines the interaction.

When Jesus taught His disciples to pray, He wasn’t simply giving them a pattern for saying their prayers. He was teaching them something far deeper: the basics of how we are to approach God. And Jesus began with one word that defined the entire experience—for them and for us: “Father.”

That changes everything.

Prayer isn’t persuading a distant deity to notice us. It isn’t presenting the right words to a reluctant God. Jesus teaches us to come to God as children approaching a Father who knows us, loves us, and welcomes us.

This week, we begin our new series, "Approach", we’ll discover that learning to approach God as our Father doesn’t simply change the way we pray.  It changes the way we live.

VESPERS

Join us for Vespers Thursday, October 8 at 7pm

Life is better together!
At Valley View Chapel, our Small Groups are a place to build meaningful friendships, grow deeper in your faith, and encourage one another through every season of life. Whether you're new to church or have been attending for years, there's a group where you can connect, study God's Word, pray together, and do life with others.

All day, every day, an invisible war rages around you-
unseen, unheard, yet felt throughout every aspect of your life.
However, the enemy fails miserably when he meets a woman dressed for the occasion.
The Armor of God, more than merely a biblical description of the believer's inventory, is an action plan for putting it on and developing a personalized strategy to secure victory. 

 Genesis isn’t just an ancient history lesson- it is the ultimate story of beginnings.
It’s where we find the foundational truths of who God is and who we are to Him. Whether you joined us last Spring or are coming for the very first time, we would love for you to join us as we pick back up in our study on the Book of Genesis!
 
We are jumping right into Chapter 11, which serves as a major turning point in the Bible-moving from the global history of the Tower of Babel right into the personal, intimate story of Abraham and his family.  The Precept Workbook is required.
