About this episode
This episode focuses on trusting in God through prayer and scripture.
Summary The phrase, "Who knows?!", found throughout Scripture, features prominently in Joel 2:12-14. Praying this prayer is an act of childlike dependence, placing our trust in the God Who knows. Episode 72 | Trusting the God Who Knows Hosted by Jeff Hoffmeyer, Denver Institute's Vice President of Advancement and Theologian in Residence, this podcast seeks to focus on the practice of prayer through scripture as a primary way to know, trust, and rest in God in our daily work and life.
