What if Jesus was Serious About Prayer?
What happens when you pray? For many of us, praying has become more like a two-way transaction with a heavenly vending machine than a warm encounter with our heavenly Father. If you long to get more than answers when you go to prayer, listen to the Equipped with Chris Brooks as Skye Jethani helps us learn to pursue God through a praying life, just like Jesus did.

Jesus Loves Me!
If someone asked you, "What do I need to believe to be a Christian?" what would you say? Sometimes the best answer is the simplest one and one many of us learned in Sunday School in that little song, "Jesus loves me, this I know, for the Bible tells me so!" Do you know that Jesus loves you? Do you know why it's so important for your own life and for those who don't yet know Jesus? Chris Brooks and Pastor John S. Dickerson review what Christians believe and why it matters!
