Join Brandon Dodd on this special first podcast episode.

I may pray to God with full confidence that He is going to answer my prayer and provide whatever it is I'm asking about, but what do I do if I don't get the answer I had hoped for? Join us as we talk about why it is that God might not unleash His power because of our prayers and how to handle it when that happens.

Listen in as we talk about the "how-to's" of having an active, consistent prayer life.

Folks hear people talk about praying for things, then God doing these incredible things, but they never experienced it for themselves and they're not for sure how it's true.

We're going to talk about how to experience God unleashing his power in our own lives through the power of Prayer.

It's been said that friends are the people who know you really well...and like you anyway. It's important for us to have people in our lives who know our "good" qualities and our "flaws" and still choose to walk through life with us. If you're missing that kind of connection in your life, or if you used to have a friend like that but that relationship has started to fade, join us as we talk about how to take your friendships to the next level.

I don't know whether you would label your own family as either functional or dysfunctional. I mean every family has its own set of imperfections. As a matter of fact, Mary Karr once said that a dysfunctional family is any family with more than one person in it. 

No matter whether you think my family is imperfect and has all sorts of problems, or you think my family is doing really well and I enjoy our family dynamic. We're going to talk about how to take our families to the next level in this lesson.

What does Chick-Fil-A have to do with taking my dating relationship or my marriage to the next level?

Watch as we talk about how to improve our relationships. No matter whether it's a marriage, a dating relationship, or a friendship, there are ways to take that connection to the next level.

Sometimes our biggest challenge to overcome is inaction - seeing opportunities to help, to lead, to act... but doing nothing. Join us as we challenge each other to take our turn to take action when the moment presents itself.

God has given us things to share with others and opportunities to share. We just need to take advantage of the opportunity to give.
