Luke 11:1-13

The Persistent Friend: Ask and you will

receive.

Many people of faith have no problem talking about what God has done for us and for our salvation but have a problem when it’s time to talk about what God requires of us. God’s claim on our lives calls on us to engage in a radically different way of loving, seeing, and doing in the world. Each text of this series involves a story of people being challenged to discover the important of acting on what they believe in a fitting manner. It is also the case that acting faithfully in service to God’s commands often involves paradoxes and reversals that make it more difficult to discern how best to act in keeping with God’s will.
