What if prayer wasn’t a performance, a formula, or a last resort in times of crisis?
What if it could be simple again—honest, bold, and deeply beautiful?
In this episode of Sunday Renewal, Ernest takes us into Luke 11, where the disciples watched Jesus pray and finally asked, “Lord, teach us to pray.”
What follows isn’t just a set of words to memorize, but an invitation to a relationship.
Jesus shows us how to pray as children who belong, not as strangers trying to impress.
What You’ll Discover in This Episode:
✅ Why prayer often feels like a burden—and how Jesus makes it a gift.
✅ The first three God-centered priorities Jesus teaches before we ever ask for our needs.
✅ What it means to call God “Father”—and why that was revolutionary.
✅ How prayer shifts the spotlight off ourselves and back onto God’s glory.
✅ What “Your kingdom come” really means for our lives right now.
If prayer has ever felt confusing, dry, or distant for you, this episode will help you rediscover prayer the way Jesus intended—real, relational, and renewing.
