About this episode

Pastor Steven Merritt explores the significance of Jesus' prayers, particularly in John 17, and questions whether Jesus was praying for the listener.

We have several prayers of Jesus written down in the Gospels. Perhaps the most well-known is His prayer recorded in The Gospel of John, chapter 17. There are a lot of things Jesus prayed for and about in this prayer. Was He praying for YOU? Pastor Steven Merritt starts a short sermon series called The Last Days of Jesus with this message.
