Bread for a Hungry Generation: How to Pray Until Breakthrough
Bread is showing up at midnight again.
In this episode, we walk line upon line through Luke 11:5–13, the parable of the Friend at Midnight, and face a humbling truth: sometimes the people we love come hungry… and we have no bread to give.
But that’s not failure. It’s an invitation.
With help from St. Augustine and other Early Church voices, we learn why the prayer before “Fill me” is often “Empty me,” and why persistence isn’t a technique, it’s the fruit of friendship with God.
If you’re praying for Gen Z, for your family, for the wounded, the confused, or the abused, this episode is a call to become a midnight messenger: not the source, but the one who keeps knocking until there’s bread to set before the hungry.
