In this episode of the River Foundation Podcast, Dan sits down with international missionary and founder of worldchristian.com, Paul Filidis, to discuss the global prayer movement that hundreds of thousands of Christians have already joined. Paul emphasizes that "learning" the cultures and faiths of our unreached neighbors is essential in informing our prayers for them and then challenges us to pray beyond ourselves through embracing our global God.
