But what does this really look like? And what is the true purpose of prayer? Join us as Brandon digs into James 5:13-20 to clarify what prayer truly is (and isn’t) and why our desire to pray is actually a clear indication of the state of our hearts. // “Prayer is not a timid act. I think so often my prayer life is weak because I don’t want to be disappointed when I ask for things and they go “unanswered”. This is a completely wrong view of God and His sovereignty.”"}
