Persistence in Prayer

Pastor Pat McCalla · Aug 30, 2020

Drawing from the story of blind Bartimaeus in Mark 10, this sermon argues that prayer and life are inseparable: how you truly believe about God will shape both how you pray and how you live. When followers of Jesus understand who God actually is — the creator of the universe, abounding in agape love, mercy, and grace — they will stop playing it safe and start praying with chutzpah: bold, audacious requests and a relentless, reckless pursuit of Jesus that makes no sense unless God is real and able to come through.
