#56 - Praying to the God Who Hears (Sermon on the Mount, Part 11)

from Adventures in Theology · host Brayden Brookshier

Why do you sometimes pray lengthy prayers? There is certainly nothing wrong with praying for great lengths of time. However, WHY we do and what we believe about God as we approach Him in prayer makes all the difference. Matthew 6:7-15 is an insightful passage which begins by contrasting how the pagan "gods" of the Graeco-Roman world listen, versus how our Father listens to our prayers. The differences cannot be exaggerated!  Like the podcast? Subscribe and give a five-star rating on Apple Podcasts, iTunes, Spotify, or wherever you listen from!
