    Notice what Jesus DOESN’T tell them. Jesus never tells the disciples they have to change first. He never tells them to become more than what they are and that they need to change before they can approach God. You can pray to God from right where you are.

I distinctly remember one particular gentleman in our church, when he was called upon to close in prayer, my teenage friends and I would literally moan with the expectation of an ...read more

Most of the disciples throughout these different situations had been skeptical for ...read more
