Prayer as the Christian Priority

Individual TopicsSteve Gregg
In this talk, Steve Gregg emphasizes the importance of prayer as a Christian priority. He acknowledges that it can be easy to become discouraged when praying repeatedly with seemingly no results, but reminds listeners that God knows our needs and wants us to ask Him for help. Gregg also notes that prayer is not just a means to fulfill personal wants or needs, but a way for Christians to participate in God's work in the world. He encourages listeners to pray with pure motives and in partnership with God, trusting in His wisdom and goodness.
