Rebellious Fidelity (Unceasing Prayer) ft. John Mark Comer, Christine Caine, Tim Mackie, and Pete Greig

The ultimate discovery of prayer is intimacy. Requests first bring us to our knees, but it’s relationship that keeps us praying. In this extended finale, our guests throughout the season join us in a roundtable format to share the secrets of their own prayer lives.

Ask, Seek, Knock (Silence and Persistence) ft. Pete Greig

Everyone who’s ever taken prayer seriously has been gut-punched by the agonizing silence of unanswered prayer. So how do we make sense of the apparent silence of God in response to our cries? How might silence deepen prayer’s intimacy and power rather than draining it? And what keeps me praying in the face of pain and disappointment?
