When You Pray Session 4

We pray to a holy God. He is holy in and of Himself, which is wholly different from our nature. What implications does His holiness have on our prayer life? What does His holiness require of us? Join us as we study God's perfect nature in session four of "When You Pray."

Isaiah 57:15
Romans 8:28-30
