Whenever you “Google” a picture of “the armor of God,” it’s almost always incomplete.  The most vital part of the armor is missing–and that’s what we’re talking about on this “Encouraging Prayer” broadcast. We’ll take a look at what it is, and why it matters so much. Please join us!

On the last National Day of Prayer Encouraging Prayer host Robby Dilmore and I talked about a beautiful scriptural illustration of what it means to stay close to God. Need fresh encouragement about what it means to keep company with the One who loves you more than life?  You’ll find it here.

Been messing up lately? Need encouragement in your struggle with temptation? Jesus gives some amazing (and often misunderstood) advice that can make a real difference in the heat of the moment. “Take a listen” to this brief Encouraging Prayer conversation. You’ll find help here that the devil doesn’t want you to know about.

We can be easily intimidated when it comes to praying. Some prayers sound so good that you might think, “God has to hear that!”  But God isn’t impressed with the words we use–there’s something far more valuable, something that matters so much more to God than words alone. I hope you’ll join us on this Encouraging […]

Here’s the second half of our walk through the Lord’s Prayer (from the Encouraging Prayer radio broadcast), where we engage it not only as words, but as a way to pray.  Need practical encouragement for spending time with God? You’ll find it here.

When Jesus taught us the Lord’s prayer, He was teaching us more than just words to memorize. He was also teaching us ways to pray, a method for spending time with God as we go through the day. Listen in as Encouraging Prayer host Robby Dilmore and I dive into this helpful topic in this two-part […]

When we pray, it’s tempting for us to make our plans and then ask God to bless them.  But there’s another example in Scripture, seen in Jesus’ life and in his mother’s as well.  This Encouraging Prayer broadcast occurred shortly before Christmas, and it’s a message that works well for starting the year.  Begin your days this way, and […]

What we think about God can have a significant effect on how we pray. On this “Encouraging Prayer” podcast, host Robby Dilmore talk about what Jesus taught us about God’s joy, and our place in it. G.K. Chesterton wrote, “To miss the joy is to miss all.”  Don’t miss this!

Waiting isn’t easy. But it makes a difference when we wait with God, instead of on Him.  When we combine worship and waiting, hope soon follows.  (PRODUCTION NOTE: The ambient noise in this episode is because it was recorded at a festival of Arab Christians–which was a lot of fun!)

Scripture shows us a strategic way to pray for those who are far from God and need to come closer.  Don’t miss this Encouraging Prayer broadcast episode where we discuss “A Prayer for Open Eyes.”
