This podcast is a complete lecture from Dr. David Powlison’s Dynamics of Biblical Change class. In the lecture, Dr. Powlison teaches that the way we as pastors, counselors, or group leaders model sharing prayer requests can actually become a teachable moment for others in our churches, helping them to better apprehend the grace and mercy of Christ.
