The Parable Of The Persistent Widow
Have you ever prayed for something so long that you finally just... stopped asking? Not because you stopped believing God could — but because you weren't sure anymore that He would. If that's where you're at, this message is for you. In Luke 18:1-8, Jesus tells the story of a widow with no power, no status, and no advocate — who refuses to stop showing up before an unjust judge. It's not a story about praying harder. It's a story about what your prayer life reveals about what you actually believe about God. In Week 5 of our "Stories: Parables" series, Pastor Kim walks through this parable and unpacks four qualities of a persistent prayer life: discipline, patience, trust, and perseverance — showing why God's delay is never His absence, and why waiting is often where He does His deepest work. If you've ever wondered whether your prayers are getting through, this message will change how you see the wait. Watch now, and if it encourages you, like, subscribe, and share it with someone who needs it. Luke 18:1-8 (NIV)
