John 17 is a masterclass in prayer, but few of us take the time to really examine what it talks about. Jesus prays for Himself, His Apostles, and the disciples at large, but He also prays for the work that He’s engaged in, as well as for the Apostles to develop strong trust in God’s Word.
And unity. He prays for the church to be united in purpose as a powerful testimony to the world.
Is that what we’re praying for? If not, maybe a quick re-examination of what Jesus prays about can help us focus on what we should be doing with our own life.

CloseThe book of Hebrews is dense, technical, and in some cases, difficult to understand. But that doesn't mean it isn't important. For an audience that is trying to make the leap from Judaism to Christianity, what they needed more than anything else was conviction. They needed to know -- beyond a shadow of a doubt -- that what they were following was true. The alternative is half-hearted belief, which almost always wilts away in the face of persecution.
