Sunday Morning Message - "Broken Heart and Bold Prayers"In this message from August 16, Pastor Kyle kicks off a brand-new series through the book of Nehemiah with a powerful message titled “Broken Heart and Bold Prayers.” In Nehemiah 1, we see Nehemiah receive heartbreaking news about the condition of Jerusalem and God's people—the walls were broken down and the people were living in disgrace. His response was not to ignore the problem, but to weep, fast, mourn, and turn to God in prayer. Nehemiah's broken heart led him to bold prayers, confessing sin, remembering God's promises, and asking God to give him favor and an opportunity to make a difference. Come discover how God can use a heart that is broken over what breaks His heart—and a believer who is willing to pray boldly and trust Him to act.

In this episode of Pray the Word on 2 Samuel 7:27, David Platt urges us to pray with courage, trusting God's promises.Explore more content from Radical.

What do you do when you've prayed for something impossible... and God said no? In Matthew 21, Jesus makes a shocking promise: faith can move mountains. But what does that actually mean? And what happens when the mountain doesn't move? In this message, Pastor Carlos Lollett unpacks Jesus' teaching on mountain-moving faith and shows why faith isn't about positive thinking, manifesting, or trying harder. Real faith isn't confidence in yourself. It's wholehearted trust in God. You'll discover: - Why pretend Christianity can never produce real faith - The difference between faith in "faith" and faith in God - How to trust God when your prayers go unanswered - Why God invites us to keep praying for the impossible If disappointment, doubt, or unanswered prayers have caused you to stop believing God for big things, this message is for you.

If your children carried their biggest hopes, dreams, and deepest desires in their hearts, wouldn't you want them to come to you with those requests? So many entrepreneurs hesitate to bring their big asks to God, especially when it comes to money, business growth, or new opportunities. We convince ourselves it's selfish, silly, or too small to pray about. But God cares about every part of your life, including the vision He placed inside you. In today's video, I'm encouraging entrepreneurs to go to God boldly and honestly with every desire, no matter the size. Your business, your breakthroughs, and your future matter to Him, and you don't have to carry those dreams alone. Important Links: Lacking the tools to reach your goals in business?

Grounded in Paul’s bold prayer in Ephesians 3, this message paints a compelling vision of the life God desires for His people. It begins with posture—Paul kneeling before the Father—and reminds us that what we bow to shapes what has power over us. In a culture filled with competing allegiances, the call is to humble ourselves before God as the starting point for spiritual transformation.  The prayer unfolds in four movements—strength, love, knowledge, and fullness—each revealing both God’s invitation and the shadows that often hold us back. God offers strength in our weakness, love that overcomes fear, knowledge that moves beyond information into lived experience, and fullness that replaces spiritual emptiness with His presence. The message invites us to unearth buried dreams, surrender self-reliance, and trust God to do what is impossible on our own, believing that when we come before Him with humility and faith, He fills us with everything we need to live out His calling.

Bold prayer isn’t reserved for perfect faith or polished words—it’s an honest response to real life. Rooted in James 5, this message reminds us that prayer is meant to be our first response in every season: trouble, joy, sickness, confession, and waiting. God works through ordinary people who come to Him with humility, trust, and expectation, believing that prayer truly is powerful and effective.

Prayer isn’t meant to be passive or theoretical—it’s meant to work. Rooted in James 5, the focus is on how authentic faith produces action, and authentic prayer produces real impact in our lives and in the world around us. Scripture presents prayer as powerful and effective, not because of who we are, but because of who God is and how He invites us to participate in His work. The passage highlights the everyday moments when prayer matters most—when we’re suffering, when life is good, when we’re sick, and when we’ve sinned—revealing prayer and praise as the natural rhythms of a life anchored in God. By pointing to Elijah as an example, James makes it clear that the power of prayer isn’t reserved for spiritual elites, but for ordinary people who trust an extraordinary God. The invitation is simple but bold: believe that prayer truly works, and step into it with honesty, faith, and expectation.

How bold are your prayers? As John Wesley crossed the Atlantic, he was reading in his cabin and became aware...

As we step into a new year, the invitation is to begin not with resolutions, but with bold, faith-filled prayer that reflects how big we believe God is. Rooted in Ezra 8, the teaching highlights a moment when God’s people faced overwhelming odds and chose humility, prayer, and fasting as their first response, trusting God to lead and protect them on a risky journey. Bold prayers aren’t about volume or performance—they’re about dependence, calling on God when the situation is beyond our control. The practice of prayer and fasting is framed as spiritual training rather than religious transaction—relational disciplines that shape our hearts, reorder our desires, and create space for God to move. Like training for a marathon, these practices prepare us to walk faithfully with God over time. As a church, we are invited into a season of intentional prayer—seeking God’s movement in our world, our community, and our own lives—believing that when we pray first, trust God along the way, and give Him the glory, He will faithfully lead us forward.
