Is it wrong to pray for someone who's asked you to stop?
If you're carrying the weight of praying for a prodigal child, a wayward spouse, or a friend who's walked away from faith, this episode is for you. Rachel tackles one of the hardest prayer questions: how to keep interceding when the person you love doesn't want your prayers.
In this episode, you'll discover:
- The crucial difference between praying FOR someone versus praying AT them
- Why secret intercession is sometimes the most powerful kind of prayer
- How to persist in prayer when you see no evidence it's working (even after years)
