Hey, this is Kyle Eidlman from Southeast Christian Church, and I'm going to thank you for listening

to the message today. As we open up the scriptures together, I pray that this message inspires you,

challenges you, and is the right word at just the right time in your life. Enjoy the message.

Hey, happy New Year, everyone. As we step into 2026, many of us are thinking about fresh starts. Like what do we want to leave behind? What do we want to build in the year ahead? And there's no shortage of voices telling us what should matter most, but I believe one of the most

important things we can focus on as a church this next year is prayer. And so today we're going to be

learning about prayer from our good friend Tripp Lee. If you've been a part of Southeast for a while,

you know what an incredible teacher, Tripp is, and how God has used his ministry to encourage and challenge

us over the years. Trip is going to be teaching us from God's word about the extravagant generosity

of God, a God who invites us to pray, who listens to us, who loves to answer our prayers. So,

church, would you please join me in giving a warm southeast welcome to Tripoli.

Good morning. How are y'all doing this morning? Good, good, good. Well, I'm excited to get to be here to preach God's word this morning.

Thank you, Pastor Kyle, for the warm, kind words.

And I've been here so many times that, you know, some people acting like we've been old friends for a long time.

I guess that's what happens when I come here so often.

But the welcome is always so warm.

You know, already today I have had people serving on the AV team who've seen me many times,

kindly asking about me and my family and taking care of me.

I have people praying for me and my family in the back.

People giving me encouraging words and praying for me,

and I am very grateful for how warm me.

I welcome me every time

and grateful to get to preach God's word this morning.
