"The Power in Prayer" is a call to see prayer for what it truly is, not positive thinking, not a religious routine, but our direct access to the power that created the world, parted seas, and raised Jesus from the grave. This episode traces that power through Scripture: Elijah shutting and opening the heavens, Hezekiah's prayer preceding the fall of 185,000 Assyrian soldiers, and the early church's prison doors swinging open in answer to prayer.

We also look at Luke's Gospel, long called the "Gospel of Prayer," and the prayer life of Jesus Himself, a life marked as much by agony in Gethsemane as by power at the empty tomb. Along the way, we unpack how all three Persons of the Godhead are engaged when we pray: the Father who listens, the Son who intercedes, and the Spirit who helps us in our weakness.

Grounded in James 5:13-18 and drawing on 1 Peter 3:12, Hebrews 9:24, Romans 8:26, Acts 2:42, 1 Timothy 2:1, and Philippians 4:6, this episode is an invitation to stop merely saying prayer is powerful and start praying as we believe it.
