This is our second podcast with Mike Hey. In this episode Dave finds out what Mike Hey tick. Dave looks at the Lord's Prayer (Luke 11:1-4) and how it is connected to the Beatitudes (Matthew 5:2-12) with Mike. We listen to Mike's reflections on these two passages and how they have helped him to pray.
