Gospel of LukeSteve Gregg
In this talk, Steve Gregg provides an analysis of Luke 18:1-23, discussing the importance of persistence in prayer and humility before God. He uses the parable of the persistent widow and the unjust judge to illustrate God's nature as a just judge who cares for his children. Gregg emphasizes the need for humility and faith in God's goodness, and highlights the value of receiving Christ like an infant. Finally, he urges his listeners to strive for perfection and tell others about Christ, rather than settling for a comfortable life.
