Have you ever thought: Why should I pray if God's going to do what He wants anyway? If so, this episode - Praying Like Jesus - is for you! Today we discuss some gems found in Jesus' prayer in the Garden of Gethsemane that give us insight into how to pray honestly and confidently.

Some insights from Jesus' Prayer in the Garden of Gethsemane we discuss in this episode:

  • When God doesn't answer prayers the way I had hoped
  • How we often play "steal the bacon" with God in prayer
  • Why Mark 14:35-36 gives us a new model for praying like Jesus

I share why I quit treating “not my will, but yours” as a type of loophole for God’s actions. Listen in for a new practical model of prayer with the easy acronym, ABC!
