Thy Kingdom Come - When You Pray, Part 2

About this episode

Pastor Ricky discusses the innate human longing for intimacy with God, tracing it back to the relationship lost in the Garden of Eden.

We were designed to have an intimate connection with God. Adam and Eve walked with Him in the Garden and talked to Him every day. The consequence of their sin was a break in that relationship. All of mankind displays an innate longing to return to that intimacy. As Pastor Ricky explains in today's message, it's exhibited in various forms but our quest to understand our world and the universe around us can always be traced back to that intimacy that was lost in the Garden.
