درباره این اپیزود
Ever prayed for something and gotten total silence back? In this episode of Big G Talks, I get honest about the prayers of mine that never got answered — and the ones that did. We cover why treating faith like a transactional relationship with God is a trap, the difference between selfish prayers and prayers to be helpful, why scripture never actually promises all your prayers will be answered, and a personal story about a prayer that got answered in a way I didn't expect.
