Series: When We Pray
May 31, 2026 | Rev. Nicole Caldwell-Gross
In this sermon, we will meet a man named Jabez, who prays that kind of prayer. And we'll be reminded that God hears all of our prayers. Even the ones that aren't proofread or polished. The ones prayed through tears, fear, frustration, and trembling faith.
Because thanks be to God, perfection has never been a requirement for prayer. Just a willingness to open our hearts before God.
Lord, hear our prayers. Hear us when our words are polished and when they fall apart. Meet us in our desperation, our fear, our hope, and our need. Remind us that no prayer is too small, too messy, or too broken for Your love to reach. In Jesus' name we pray- Amen.
Series Information
Prayer is our lifeline. It equips us to persevere through our deepest sorrows and to receive our greatest joys. And understanding this is at the heart of our series this month: When We Pray. Throughout this series, we’ll unpack some of the poignant prayers found in Scripture and discern what they still have to teach us today.
