Prayer

Todd Smedly speaks on prayer, emphasizing its role in revealing our spiritual health and deepening our relationship with God. Quoting JC Ryle, he challenges whether we can truly speak to God as well as we speak about Him. Using Matthew 6:5-14, he highlights Jesus’ teaching that prayer is more than requests—it’s about recognizing God as our Father and approaching Him naturally in humility and dependence.
