Sermon
Your Prayers Are Too Small

Summary
Paul prays that believers would comprehend the boundless love of Christ to fuel bold, faith-filled prayers. God's power to do far more than we ask or think is guaranteed by the cross, making our current prayers too small and demanding a bigger vision of his love and capability.
Highlights
Everything you're asking God for right now is too small, and the size of our prayers are a direct reflection of what we believe to be true about God.
God can't give us or do for us anything greater than what he's already done for us in Christ. The magnitude of what God did through the cross makes Ephesians 3:20 look like light work.
There's more wind blowing that you're not catching. You need to build a bigger sail.
