Many of you may know that I have several health conditions that will eventually require some pretty life altering surgeries. When that happens, I hope you pray for me, my family, the doctors, and Courageous Church like crazy.
Well, today we NEED to pray for Pastor Matt Chandler. One of the best preachers in the world, pastor of a growing/thriving mega-church, a husband, and father to a young family, Matt will be having emergency surgery this Friday to remove a tumor from the frontal lobe of his brain.
Can you imagine those conditions? Well – Matt is facing them with a courageous faith, but we need to PRAY! Pray out loud. Pray right now. Pray later. Start prayer chains. Tell you pastor. Tell your friends. Call grandmama and nem. MAKE A BIG DEAL OUT OF THIS.
- Pray for Matt Chandler by name. Pray for his peace of mind. Pray for his total recovery! Pray that he hears the voice of God in a real way in this tough season.
- Pray for his wife Lauren by name and pray for their beautiful family. Pray that God holds her up and strengthens her from the inside out as she serves as the rock of their family.
- Pray for Dr. David Barnett – the chief surgeon this Friday. Pray for his skilled hands and that God uses him to perform medical miracles. The surgery is THIS FRIDAY AFTERNOON!
- Pray for Village Church. Pray that they lean on God like never before. They love their pastor and need him to recover. They have a prayer meeting tonight (Wednesday) @ 7pm.

I have been and will continue to pray for him, Lauren, Dr. Barnett, and the Village Church. May complete healing and an awesome testimony come out of this. In all things, God will be glorified!
with God before you who can stand against you? I will keep you in prayer it's over when God says it's over! Stay blessed Wallace
Definitely praying. Matt Chandler is a gift to the church. Grateful for his ministry. Let's pray per Matt's request that he would 'suffer well'.
