‘Help with prayer’ is a series that considers things which help us to pray in the right and most effective way.

‘I think so often we have that, sort of, name it and gain it, sort of, idea.  That if you imagine that you’d like a big car or a new house and you ask for it with sufficient faith or resolve, that God will give you it.’
