About this sermon
Paul’s words in Philippians 4:6-7 invite us to bring our worries to God — not to control outcomes, but to open our hearts. John shares how Jerry Hawthorne, Dallas Willard, and Joni Eareckson Tada each taught that prayer is a conversation with a Person, not a formula for results. Through Joni’s example, John introduces the 80/20 rule of prayer. True peace comes not from fixing every circumstance, but from the peace of God guarding the heart that lets go. 00:00 — Why Paul Says “Do Not Be Anxious About Anything” 00:42 — What Philippians 4 Teaches About Prayer and Peace 02:18 — Remembering John Huffman’s Legacy of Faith 04:12 — What Dallas Willard Taught About Hearing God 06:00 — “My Son Had Strains You Will Never Know” Story 08:14 — What “The Peace of God” Really Means 09:49 — Joni Eareckson Tada and the 80/20 Rule of Prayer 11:13 — Why Faith Isn’t Convincing Yourself Things Will Change 11:37 — How to Pray for Your Heart Not Just Your Situation 12:05 — A Simple 80/20 Prayer Practice for Today Become New is here to help you grow spiritually one day at a time.
