2471: Sunday Podcast: Ask Not What God Can Do For You

But for today, Rich puts on his preacher hat and delivers a nice little sermon on prayer… and challenges our conventional thinking about what prayer is and how it works… and asks us to put a little more thought into what God needs US to do instead of always focusing only on what we need God to do for us.
