But what really happens when we offer our prayers and petitions to Him? Does God change His mind? Can prayer alter His plan? In this message, Pastor Chuck Swindoll unpacks Abraham’s heartfelt intercession for Lot and his family amid Sodom’s destruction. Wrestle with the tension between what we ask for and why we ask and discover how prayer shapes our hearts and aligns us with God’s purposes.
