    based on 4 ratings
     | 14,132 views

    This parable is about persistence in praying but not about praying the same prayer persistently to get what we want. It is about sticking with prayer and with God no matter what!

     | 771 views

    We struggle so much about this thing we call EVANGELISM but when we look at what Jesus actually calls us to do, it relieves us of our fear and allows us to do what He wants... share Him!

    What God Wants Isn’t What You Think

    Contributed by David Dunn on Dec 4, 2025
     | 162 views

    Faith is not belief alone but a heart returning to and reaching for Jesus—seeking relationship, surrender, and wholeness in His presence.

Luke 17 records one of those moments—an encounter tucked into a journey, a miracle overshadowed by a greater truth, a healing overshadowed by a deeper kind of ...read more
