Prayer isn’t passive. Prayer produces.

In Episode 13 of the Bold as a Lion Prayer Podcast, we look at what happens when believers move beyond simply talking about prayer and begin praying with boldness, faith, surrender, and expectation.

This episode is filled with encouragement and real-life testimony of God at work. We discuss trusting God when life feels like it has hit bottom, recognizing that we already have faith to use, and believing that God can work through ordinary people who are willing to pray and obey.

Whatever you’re facing, remember these three powerful truths: Jesus is with you, and because He is with you, you are never facing life alone. God is beneath you—even when you feel like you’ve hit rock bottom, His everlasting arms are underneath you, ready to hold you. And you have all the faith you need—God has given each believer a measure of faith, and even faith as small as a mustard seed can move mountains.

The conversation also explores ministry beyond the walls of the church—from reaching men in jail and helping them find a new direction after release, to the launch of Sharpening Men, a free weekly men's breakfast built around biblical discipleship, accountability, brotherhood, and helping men become who God created them to be. We also share updates about prayer meetings, prayer flights, ministry opportunities, and testimonies of doors opening as prayer is put into action.

One of the most important themes of this episode is surrender: bold prayer isn't demanding that God do things our way. Sometimes four of the boldest words we can pray are, "Your will be done." Trusting God's will doesn't mean abandoning faith—it means placing our faith completely in Him.

Whether you're facing a difficult season, looking for a fresh start, believing God for something that seems impossible, or simply wanting to grow deeper in prayer, we hope this episode encourages you to pray boldly, trust completely, and look for opportunities to plant seeds in the lives of others.

What if Jesus didn’t give us the Lord’s Prayer simply to recite, but to live?

In this episode of Bold as a Lion Prayer Podcast, Tom Henry and Pastor Danny J. Pankey explore the disciples’ request, “Lord, teach us to pray,” and how Jesus modeled a life built around prayer.

They discuss developing a genuine habit of prayer, using the Lord’s Prayer as a roadmap, and the challenge to “practice what we pray.”

The episode also shares exciting new ministry opportunities, including Tom’s jail ministry and the launch of Sharpening Men, a weekly men’s breakfast focused on Bible study, accountability, fellowship, and helping men grow into disciples who disciple others.

What do you do when the situation in front of you looks absolutely impossible?

In Episode 11 of the Bold as a Lion Prayer Podcast, Tom Henry and Pastor Danny J. Pankey talk about facing the mountains we cannot move in our own strength—addiction, illness, broken relationships, financial struggles, prodigals, ministry challenges, and circumstances that seem beyond hope.

Drawing from Zechariah 4, they explore the powerful declaration, “Not by might nor by power, but by My Spirit,” and the simple but profound prayer spoken to the mountain: “Grace, grace.”

This episode also looks at the different ways God's grace works in our lives—saving grace, justifying grace, teaching grace, and enabling grace—and how His strength becomes sufficient precisely where our own strength runs out.

Sometimes we need to stop telling God how big our mountain is and start reminding our mountain how big our God is.

Whatever impossible situation you're facing today, don't give up. Bring it boldly to the throne of grace, trust God with what you cannot do yourself, and declare:

Grace, grace to this mountain.

“The wicked flee though no one pursues, but the righteous are bold as a lion.” — Proverbs 28:1
