Ben Chase continues our new series on Prayer with a sermon called Talking With God. This sermon series is based on resources provided by Practicing The Way. Sunday November 9th, 2025.
"Let's get our lives in sync with Him. Let's talk with God. Let's keep our communication open. Let's be willing to hear what He wants to say to us and to listen to His voice and let's communicate." Pastor Matt Janzen
We talk a lot about prayer, but what about fasting? In this sermon, we explore Jesus' teachings on fasting and how this often-overlooked practice can deepen our prayer life, build spiritual strength, and align our hearts with God's. It's not about getting hangry. It's about getting hungry for God.

Is praying out loud, especially in a group of people, a little awkward? In "Talking with God", Pastor John points out that it is really just talking with God - keep it simple, real and honoring.Support the show
Is prayer really worth it? What's the point if God already knows everything—or when it feels like He isn't answering? In this message, Pastor Adam helps us reframe prayer not as performance or obligation, but as an honest, ongoing conversation with a relational God- The Father. Through Psalm 73, Philippians 4, and James 5, we learn that sometimes the most powerful prayer we can pray is: “God, change my heart.”
In this message from Terry Timm, we delve into the transformative concept of partnering with God to shape the world around us. Drawing from Luke 11:1-13, we see Jesus teaching His disciples how to pray, highlighting the importance of persistence and faith. Prayer is portrayed not just as a passive act, but as a dynamic partnership with the Divine to "bend the arc of human history" towards God's kingdom. This message challenges us to view prayer as an act of "spiritual defiance" against forces opposing God's will. Jesus encourages us to ask boldly, seek diligently, and knock persistently, trusting in a loving Father who desires to give good gifts to His children. As we reflect on this, we are invited to examine our belief in the power of prayer and to embrace our role as "shapers of the future" through intercession.
In this message from Terry Timm, we explore the depth of prayer by examining the Lord's Prayer from Luke 11. Prayer is not merely about speaking to God but engaging in a multifaceted conversation with God. Jesus teaches us about our 'how much more' Father in heaven—a God who desires to give us good gifts, surpassing the generosity of earthly parents. This understanding encourages us to approach prayer with confidence and expectation. There are four powerful ways to engage with God in prayer: wonder, gratitude, lament, and petition. These approaches enrich our prayer life by allowing us to express awe at God's creation, thankfulness for His blessings, honesty about our struggles, and trust as we present our needs to Him. By practicing these forms of prayer, we are encouraged to deepen our relationship with God and experience His presence in transformative ways.
Ready to take things to the next level? In this series, we talk about things that help us grow spiritually. In this message, Pastor Jamie Nunnally encourages us in prayer and fasting. What is prayer?Prayer is communication with God.Prayer is the intersection of three things:1) Being with God2) Talking to God3) Listening to God What is fasting?Fasting is the practice of not eating food in order to amplify your prayer.You can't be filled if you're already full, so fasting is making room so you can communicate with God more effectively. It's denying the flesh in order to advance the spirit.Fasting turns deciding into discerning. How to level up though prayer:1. Pray without distraction.Luke 5:16 ESV "But Jesus often withdrew to lonely places and prayed."Let's be honest, many of us are used to asking Google instead of asking God.You can't do important things when you're distracted by insignificant things.Good things become bad things when they distract us from God things.John Ortberg – "For many of us the great danger is not that we will renounce our faith. It is that we will become so distracted and rushed and preoccupied that we will settle for a mediocre version of it." 2. Pray like you know God.Have you ever asked yourself, if God already knows everything, why do we have to pray? Because prayer fulfills His desire for relationship with you, and because relationships are founded on communication.Prayer is not getting God to do something for you, it's getting to know God.Hebrews 4:16 NIV "Let us then approach God's throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need."Prayer should be personal, not transactional. 3. Pray like you'll make a difference.James 5:16-17 NLT "The earnest prayer of a righteous person has great power and produces wonderful results. Elijah was as human as we are, and yet when he prayed earnestly that no rain would fall, none fell for three and a half years!" Your prayers are so important that they actually affect the outcome of history.Think of this: If prayer changes things, not praying changes things too. So why don't you pray as much as you could?You'll only talk to God if you believe He's listening. 4. Pray a lot.Luke 11:5-8 NLT Your prayers never bother God. But do you know what does bother Him? Us, absent of relationship, wanting to use Him as our genie. 5. Pray, then listen.John 10:27 "My sheep hear my voice."Sit with God after talking to Him and learn to be led by Him. How would your life be different if you committed to prayer and fasting? Are you using prayer and fasting to level up?
Ever look around our world and wonder if God sees? Do you wonder If God even cares to be involved in your life? As we surveyed many of you, we discovered that even those who pray, have questions. And even those who long to believe that God works through our prayers, have doubts. If we look at a repeated, well known prayer, we can discover the power in it that often gets overlooked. No matter what you are going through in life or where you hope for change, God sees, God cares, and God wants to know you more.Eastown was created for you!

First question, what's going on with Medjugorje? A sad and concerned Blessed Mother Mary is calling for more rosaries to be prayed for world peace. Is a world war looming? Is this symbolized by her shifting her apparitions to just before midnight? Why, for nine days, were her apparitions to be on Apparition Hill? Second question, what does TBH do with all of this, this week? Two questions, two songs bubbling up in Trapper's head. But, just one answer.
