    Why Praying for Yourself is Essential

    Date: Nov 24, 2022

    Guests: Jodie Berndt

    Jodie Berndt explores what it means to “abide in Christ” from John 15. She also discusses the importance of praying for your marriage, your children, for forgiveness, for being a good friend, and why waiting on God to answer our prayers is actually a good thing.
