Everyday Theology + Questions Kids Ask
This is our last week walking through the key doctrines of the Christian faith as we cover the end times. We discuss why Revelation is one of Whitney’s favorite books of the Bible and how you can better learn to see the gospel clearly in how God says that the world as we have experienced it will end.

Why do we pray? If God really is in control and is all-knowing, shouldn't He know what we need and what we would ask for if we were praying anyway? God is in control and God does know. In fact, He knows BETTER than we do about what we need, but prayer is still SO valuable. There's so mystery about it - but we know two things for sure: Prayer changes our hearts and prayer has the power to really change things. We see God answer prayer over and over again in Scripture and He does the same for us.
