Let’s talk about prayer. If we’re honest, and we should be, as believers we can find ourselves in a pickle. My mind wanders. I keep saying the same things over and over again. My prayers seem to bounce off the ceiling. I pray and look for answers and nothing happens. All of this leads us to pack our bags and go on a guilt trip. Don’t do that! Christian author Don Whitney joined the conversation and provided several key tips that could be a prayer game changer for you! https://www.desiringgod.org/articles/talk-to-god-in-his-own-language You can check out Don Whitney's book, "Spiritual Disciplines for the Christian Life" right here: https://www.amazon.com/Spiritual-Disciplines-Christian-Donald-Whitney/dp/1615216170 Donate to Moody Radio: http://moodyradio.org/donateto/morningshow/wkesSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This is Empires of the Future, conversations to understand culture and encourage the Church in a time of change.  Spiritual Disciplines for the Christian Life by Donald Whitney “Read the Bible, pray everyday, and you'll grow, grow, grow.”  This phrase common among christian teachers agrees with one of C.S. Lewis' sentiments that Christianity is a form of education in itself.  If so, what are the disciplines that come with it?  What is expected of a Christian?  Don Whitney's book Spiritual Disciplines for the Christian Life is a simple yet comprehensive answer to this question, and in this podcast we dive into Whitney's summary of biblical teaching regarding the disciplines.   "The Empires of the future will be Empires of the Mind." - Winston Churchill

Travis welcomes Donald Whitney to the show! Are you having a hard time praying? Do you find yourself praying with the same old words? For the same old things? For many of us, prayer is a chore.

Which spiritual discipline can help awaken our appetite for God, but is rarely practiced well today?

Taking in the word of God and talking to him in prayer are the most basic, fundamental disciplines. But is there a way to do both of those better?

Discipline is a mark of a believer in Jesus Christ. The Holy Spirit gives us new desires to see and savor Jesus Christ wherever we can find him.

The spiritual disciplines are habits to be engaged in personally and corporately. We need time alone with God, and we need time together with his people.

What makes a discipline spiritual, and what makes a spiritual practice a discipline? Don Whitney addresses six characteristics of Christian spiritual disciplines.
