    This has been one of the most impactful Christian podcasts I’ve listened to. It provides simple methods of applying my prayer to everyday life. The teachings are true, simple, and trustworthy. I never have to worry if I’m being fed false teaching. Deacon Keating is a wise teacher who promotes the teachings of the church. Would recommend this to anyone!!!
