Summary

"In today's Conversations for the Journey, host and Care Director Wes Butler leads us in praying through Acts 9:32-43. This week, Wes leads us in prayer for three things: for those battling chronic illness, for those who are dead in their sin to be raised to life in Christ, and for courage to speak the Gospel into dark places.

0:00.0	This is the Join the Journey weekly prayer podcast.
0:13.1	Unlike our new Tuesday teaching episodes, this time is set apart for guided prayer as we abide in Jesus together.
0:20.6	Here's your host, Wes Butler. Well,
0:24.1	welcome back, friends, to another week of conversations for the journey. I'm so glad that you are
0:29.7	joining us again this week. For those of you who are tuning in each and every week, I do pray and
0:34.5	hope that your prayer life has changed this year as we've just spent time looking at
0:39.4	God's word, seeing how we can respond to it prayerfully, how we can allow it to inform our prayers.
0:45.4	And so that's what we want to continue to do with this podcast.

1:23.1	with and be directed to. And so just a few things here that I was stirred to think about and to be
1:29.9	prayerful for. First, as we read that story of Aeneas, we see that this was not just an acute
1:36.4	moment in his life. This was an eight-year battle with a disease that had paralyzed him. And so it said
1:43.2	that he was bedridden for eight years.
1:45.8	And it just reminds me of the fact that there are many in our church family here at Watermark
1:50.9	who are battling a chronic illness.
1:53.6	This is not just something that came on them suddenly and they were sick for a few days and then
