Last week, John Mark walked us through Jesus teaching us how to pray. This week, we learn why we pray. In this teaching, John Mark covers Jesus' teaching and parable on prayer in Luke 11 to show that Jesus sees prayer differently. He believes that prayer is a way to collaborate with God to create good in the world. John Mark also challenges our preconceptions of prayer by talking through Jesus' command to ask with shameless audacity and don't stop asking. The episode concludes with some practical tips to make prayer a consistent element of your discipleship to Jesus. Key Scripture Passages: Luke 11:1-13; Genesis 1:26-28; Genesis 2:15-17; Genesis 3:6-7; Exodus 32:1-10You can find various resources for this practice (Including our prayer cards) here: https://practicingtheway.org/practices/prayerVisit practicingtheway.org for more information and resources.Facebook, YouTube: Practicing the WayInstagram: @practicingthewayTwitter: @practheway
