Episode 21 - Praise First or Ask First?

When we pray, should we start with praise… or go straight to our requests?
In this episode, we unpack a listener question about prayer and explore why praise and petition were never meant to compete with each other. From the pattern of the Lord’s Prayer to the structure of historic collects and prayers of the church, we talk about how thanksgiving shapes our perspective, deepens trust, and changes the way we bring our needs before God.
We discuss why many of us naturally jump straight to “God help me,” what happens when praise is missing from our prayer life, and how gratitude and request actually work together to form a deeper relationship with God.
Because prayer isn’t just about getting answers. It’s about drawing closer to the One we’re praying to.
