In this episode, Chris Rivers and Brad Walbridge, along with Scott Puckett, discuss why and how men should be prayerfully dependent. They explore the posture that makes prayer possible, the purpose of this most intimate spiritual discipline, and the daily practice that can help us stay connected to Christ and empowered to do the Father’s will. Share, listen, and then discuss the application, key ideas, and Scripture references in a one-on-one conversation or with a group of men by visiting: https://resources.gracechurchsc.org/podcasts/men-at-grace

APPLICATION:

Christ modeled prayerful dependence and encouraged us to approach God as “Father.” How does this view of God differ or align with your own, and why?
What motivations often underlie your prayers and what posture do you take?
What is your current practice of prayer and what barriers may be keeping you from becoming prayerfully dependent?
What steps do you need to take to develop prayerful dependence? How will you move and to whom will you be accountable?
