In the final lesson of this series, how do we apply apostolic traditions as way of life, making room for Christ to grow in us, and draw us closer to God?

In Lesson Two of our study on how to pray, we discuss how Jesus’ teachings the Sermon On the Mount encourage simplicity and genuineness in prayer.

Apostolic traditions help us grow more like Christ. Sometimes, we hit a road block. Worldly care begin to choke out our best intentions for spiritual growth. How do we overcome them?

A closer look at the traditions taught by the apostles in every church. " Paul describes as "his ways" taught "everywhere in every church" (1 Corinthians 4:17).

The Holy Spirit inspired traditions to be taught among God’s people. The apostles also warned against human traditions based on philosophy and worldly principles.

In Christ we are redeemed by His blood. In this life, our aim is that He may live through us. Can we say by our current behavior that "Christ lives in me"?

We are not called to a "holier than thou" mentality. Rather, we are called to perfect the holiness God creates in us through Jesus Christ, by His Holy Spirit.

We turn our attention to learning to use our mouths to glorify God. In 1 Peter 3:15,be ready to give an answer for our hope when we are persecuted as Christians.

In this second lesson on What Hinders Prayer? we discuss things that prevent God from listening to our requests, such as sin, unforgiveness, and unrepentance.
