Don't Let a Wounded Heart Become a Bitter Spirit - Glenn Packiam

About this sermon

What do you do when prayer feels impossible? In this conversation, John Ortberg is joined by pastor and author Glenn Packiam to reflect on Psalm 73 and the reality of spiritual slumps.

This episode explores: - Psalm 73 and spiritual honesty - The danger of a wounded heart and bitter spirit - "The Bible is reading you" - Why "Yet I am always with You" changes everything - Christian hope beyond present circumstances - Ty Cobb's surprising lesson for prayer - Why the best thing you can do is simply keep showing up Scriptures: - Psalm 73 #Psalm73 #JohnOrtberg #GlennPackiam #Prayer #SpiritualFormation #ChristianFaith #BibleStudy #Psalms #Hope #FaithInHardTimes 🙌 New episodes every weekday. 📲 Subscribe, like, and share to help others grow spiritually.
