About this episode

This sermon explores the concept of prayer as the foundation of the Christian life and the importance of abiding in Christ amidst life's distractions.

What if prayer isn’t advanced Christianity… but the baseline of the Christian life? In John 15, Jesus invites us into “the abiding life” — a life of staying connected to Him in the middle of ordinary life. In a world filled with distraction, exhaustion, anxiety, performance, and noise, Jesus offers something different: connection, communion, rest, and life. This sermon explores: • What it means to abide in Christ • The cost of living spiritually disconnected • Why Jesus Himself had a prayer life • Historic Christian practices that help cultivate a life of prayer
