And the guys recommend some of their favorite books on prayer like, The Valley of Vision, John Bunyan’s treatise on Prayer, The Bible and the Closet by Watson and Lee, and Praying the Bible by Don Whitney. Plus, Jimmy teaches Joe to speak Canadia. Our Sponsor All this month, Doctrine and Devotion is sponsored by Media Gratiae, a small nonprofit ministry that makes incredible documentaries and multimedia Bible studies. This week we want to tell you about their project, Behold Your God: Rethinking God Biblically multimedia Bible Study. This is a 12-week, plug-and-play multimedia Bible study on the character of God, applying who God is to what we do as Christians, and deals with subjects like worship, service, evangelism, holiness, and the dangers of pragmatism and false conversion. The filmmakers travel to England, Scotland, Wales, and New England to incorporate the witness of Church History through some significant figures your church needs to know about including Edwards, Rutherford, and even the anti-hero, Charles Finney! Features contributions from Paul Washer, Richard Owen Roberts, Conrad Mbewe, Anthony Mathenia, and more. The study is made up of a 13 DVD set, and a corresponding daily devotional workbook that each person in the study will need their own copy of. The entire first week of the study is available for free, for your evaluation, at https://mediagratiae.org/collections/behold-your-god-rethinking-god-biblically/products/behold-your-god-13-dvd-setSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/doctrine-and-devotion/exclusive-contentAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands
