This podcast is for those who want to kick start their prayer life and scale up the role of prayer in their Christian walk.

It’s for those who’ve ever wondered “How can I pray more effectively”?

    The only 'ask' for physical provision taught in the Lord’s Prayer is “Give us today our daily bread”. If ‘daily bread’ represents our essential needs on a day to day basis, what place is there to be asking God for anything more than this. Doesn’t Jesus also encourage us to ask for ‘anything’?

    Touching again on the communal aspect of the Lord’s Prayer, Jesus teaches us to pray “give US today”, not “give ME today”.
