‘Parables on the Heart of Prayer: God’s Heart’

Pastor Nick returns to chapter 11 of Luke to work through two more parables. These stories in verses 5-13 show us that God receives the petitions of His people gladly, generously supplying their needs according to His will. 

‘Parables on the Heart of Prayer: The Petitioner’s Heart’

Pastor Nick teaches through Luke 18:1-8 and 18:9-14, helping us to understand that the Christian should pray persistently, hopefully, and humbly. 

‘Teach Us to Pray, Jesus’

Pastor Nick demonstrates how the gospel of Luke pays close attention to the role of prayer in Jesus’s earthly ministry, and exposits Luke 11:1-4 where Jesus teaches His disciples how to pray.
