Welcome to General Chat - GAW Community Area
This General Chat area started off as a place for people to talk about things that are off topic, however it has quickly evolved into a community and has become an integral part of the GAW experience for many of us.
Based on its evolving needs and plenty of user feedback, we are trying to bring some order and institute some rules. Please make sure you read these rules and participate in the spirit of this community.
Rules for General Chat
-
Be respectful to each other. This is of utmost importance, and comments may be removed if deemed not respectful.
-
Avoid long drawn out arguments. This should be a place to relax, not to waste your time needlessly.
-
Personal anecdotes, puzzles, cute pics/clips - everything welcome
-
Please do not spam at the top level. If you have a lot to post each day, try and post them all together in one top level comment
-
Try keep things light. If you are bringing in deep stuff, try not to go overboard.
-
Things that are clearly on-topic for this board should be posted as a separate post and not here (except if you are new and still getting the feel of this place)
-
If you find people violating these rules, deport them rather than start a argument here.
-
Feel free to give feedback as these rules are expected to keep evoloving
In short, imagine this thread to be a local community hall where we all gather and chat daily. Please be respectful to others in the same way

🙏Prayer Garden Podcast Episode 12: Daniel Russell (Ministry Coordinator at Army of Love)🙏
If you are thinking about starting a small group bible study yet aren't yet able to come up with material yourself, I highly recommend this ministry. They provide some great content to help get together started leading a small group. The content is meant to start dialogue as you grow in Christ
In this episode we speak with my friend and brother in Christ, Daniel Russell. Daniel and I got introduced through a mutual friend within the ministry, Army of Love. In this episode, we hear Daniel's powerful testimony of growing up in a Christian family and how the enemy tried to sever his relationship with Christ on multiple occasions. We hear Daniel's account of how Jesus never stopped fighting for him both spiritually and physically, even to the point of Daniel's near-death experience on a mission trip. We then hear about Daniel's current position within the ministry, Army of Love, a ministry that helps heal and transform broken hearts through our Lord, Jesus Christ. It is fitting how Daniel's walk through spiritual warfare led him to an "army" of Christ fighting to spread the light, love, and truth of Jesus.
Thank you for tuning in! Together through Christ we have endless potential.
