Why Doesn't God Answer My Prayer?
August 16, 2022
In this message from Genesis 32, Pastor J.D. tells the story of Jacob, a man who began his life as a deceiver and ended his life with a limp—but who, right in the middle, wrestled with God and received an unimaginable blessing. Jacob provides a model for all of us who have ever waited on God to answer us, unsure if he hears, he cares, or he will ever act. Through Jacob, we learn that many of the blessings of God are released into our lives only through persistent, unrelenting prayer.

Request Christ Is Better: 10 Sessions in Hebrews now.
As we walk through Hebrews, we see that it’s a book of the Bible written to people whose faith in Jesus was lagging. Many of us still struggle with the same problems they did, as we find it harder and harder to walk with God. To help us as we daily seek to walk with God, we have a 10-part Bible study to drive home that Jesus is worthy of our trust and devotion. We want each chapter of the book of Hebrews to challenge and encourage you.
About Summit Life
We believe the gospel is a deep well of transformative grace – and we’ll never find the bottom.
We know life with Jesus extends beyond Sunday mornings. That’s why providing daily broadcasts, honest podcasts, insightful blogs, and challenging books are all part of J.D.’s ministry as a pastor – and as a believer. At the end of the day, we want you to be drawn deeper into the gospel and to fall more in love with Jesus.
