Abundant Life John 10:10 The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.It is not the purpose of God to punish people for existing on the Planet Earth. God created the earth for his people, to serve them. Jesus came as the very expression of His Father to reveal to us the heart of God to His people. All men turn to God for Hope of a better life. Jesus is offering life in abundance. Here are a couple of
commentaries: Joh 10:10 - I am come that
they might have life, and . . . more abundantly--not merely to
preserve but impart LIFE, and communicate it in rich and unfailing
exuberance. What a claim! Yet it is only an echo of all His
teaching; and He who uttered these and like words must be either a
blasphemer, all worthy of the death He died, or "God with us"--there
can be no middle course. Jamieson, Fausset and Brown
Commentary Might have it more abundantly - Literally, that they may have
abundance, or that which abounds. The word denotes that which is not
absolutely essential to life, but which is superadded to make life
happy. They shall not merely have life - simple, bare existence -
but they shall have all those superadded things which are needful to
make that life eminently blessed and happy. It would be vast mercy
to keep men merely from annihilation or hell; but Jesus will give
them eternal joy, peace, the society of the blessed, and all those
exalted means of felicity which are prepared for them in the world
of glory. Albert Barnes - Notes on the Bible.

Family is the basis of City Life Church Family vs. being alone Most Christians pray alone, they study alone, they seek God for healing, salvation for loved ones, finances, all by themselves. It is so much easier to work in small groups (family) that support your prayers, encourage your studies, even willing to fast with you to bring answers to your prayers.
You can be a member of a large church and still feel very alone, wondering if anyone really cares. Pastor Ken connects you to a group (family) to get you support and confidence in your prayer life. Prayer is suppose to work.
Prayer will work for you There is no "maybe" in answers to prayer. We stand with you shoulder to shoulder until your prayer project is completed. Pastor Ken spends quality time teaching on the “how” of prayer. Then you practice what you have learned with the other members of your group. We place seasoned prayer warriors in each group for support and advice. City Life Church is here to develop you spirit, soul and body into a mature confident Christian.
Join our family, we want you. We have committed ourselves before the altar of the Living God that THIS Church will make a difference in YOUR life.

Prayer is the very basis of Christian life. A Christian living his or her life without a strong prayer life has no more power that the non-Christians that live in their community. You may love the Lord, you may be born again and baptized in the river Jordan, but if you do not have a solid prayer life (prayer every day) you will be just as broke, just as sick and just as powerless against the work of the devil as any other person you know. Prayer - communication with the Living God - is the fabric and fiber of Christian life. You can be a Christian, but without prayer there is no life in you! Jesus states in the Gospel of John 10:10 The thief
cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am
come that they might have life, and that they might have it more
abundantly. Jesus is the vine and you are the branch. In
the plant world, water is the critical basis for life and growth.
Some plants need lots of sun other plants will live very well in the
shade, but they all must have water. Prayer is to a Christian what
water is to a plant.
