Today we learn the focus of prayer and the power of prayer.

This week we look at the day the first ever church was planted and ask the question, "What were they all continually devoted to when we read 'the apostles' teaching?' These are the early days, there are only 12 Apostles and over 6000 baptized believers in the church. How did they teach all these people? Many good lessons here for the church today.
