Summary
If you cry out to God day and night, God will not turn his face away from you. I continue to share another parish talk I recently gave as part of a series on evangelizing your loved ones. Today I share about the power of persistent prayer and the different types of prayer the Catholic faith offers us to intercede for our loved ones.
Snippet from the Show
St. Monica persistently prayed and waited for God to move in her son’s life. When God finally moved, Augustine converted. We don’t always perceive the mystery of God’s will and working, but we need to surrender to his time table and trust that he is always on time.

| 0:54.7 | nights, I teach a class for my adults from Brandon Bot's wonderful book from Word on Fire, |

| 1:19.2 | commercial break, what we do is we lay out how to equip yourself with the Bible and the |
| 1:24.4 | catechism in order to effectively answer those you're trying to draw back |
| 1:28.6 | to the church, their objections, their doubts, fears, worries, whatever it might be. I want to thank |
