Knowing God in prayer is more vital than receiving what we want. As we come to know Him, our passion for Him grows while our desire for sin fades. In this message, Pastor Lutzer shares five choices that develop intimacy during our quiet times. Come boldly to the throne of grace, even when the answer is disguised.

When we say "bless you" to someone, what do we really mean? Oftentimes, we use the word "bless" very carelessly. However, we have the opportunity to bless God, bless others, and even things (like a worship service) if God approves of them and is involved in them.

Caller Questions & Discussion:

Today, Pastor Jack teaches that like David, God’s Kingdom grows within us quietly, and oftentimes invisibly at first. Humble beginnings are often God's way of working through our fear and insecurity to form a more Godly outcome based on security and trust.

Parenting has a sneaky way of poking every insecurity you thought you’d outgrown. Authors Adam and Chelsea Griffin of the Family Discipleship Podcast join Dave and Ann to uncover why comparison drains us—and how Christ’s steady love refuels patience, grit, and tenacious joy. With honesty, laughter, and a few wince-worthy confessions, this episode will remind all you weary moms and dads: You’re not alone, you’re not behind, and you’re loved more deeply than you think.
