Have We Forgotten How to Pray?

Have we forgotten how to pray? On the week leading up to America's 250th anniversary, Pastor Todd looks at Abraham Lincoln's Civil War prayer and the diagnosis it offered a nation that had grown too self-sufficient to feel its need for God.

They become the foundation future generations stand on. Want to dive deeper?
