Special: Can We Be Reconciled Without Prayer?

by | Jun 5, 2019

Episode Overview:

In this special episode, we hear Isaac’s talk from the JUST Gospel conference, which took place in Atlanta this past May, and it was hosted by The Front Porch. In this talk he answers the question, “Can we be reconciled without prayer?” Standing on Scripture, such as John 17, Isaac offers two answers: 1) No and 2) Why would we want to? Why would we want a reconciliation born of the flesh but not the Spirit?
Brothers and sisters, we wage war against Satan and his dominion.

So, if you’ve ever been tempted to think that prayer is unnecessary and weak, here are four reasons why we can and should be reconciled with prayer:

  1. The Bible commands prayer
  2. Church history commends prayer
  3. Pastors know about prayer
  4. Christians agree on prayer

 

Pull up a chair, c’mon up on The Front Porch and listen.

  • United? We Pray

    United? We Pray is a ministry to help Christians pray and think about racial strife. We want to encourage Christians amid the strife to rely upon God in prayer. So our prayers can be informed, we strive to learn and write about race, racism and its effects, and theology. We aim to be biblical, beneficial, and clear in all our efforts. While we’re burdened for all racial strife, we focus on racial strife between Christians because of the unique privilege and stewardship God has given his people: to bear witness to Him and to love all people, especially one another (Gal. 6:10).
