The Righteous Brothers Podcast

Mike Shaw and Pastor Jonathan Yates continue their conversation on relational evangelism, focusing this week on the importance of intercession.

After identifying the people God may be calling us to reach, the next step is to pray for them intentionally. Mike and Jonathan talk about what prayer really is, why listening matters as much as speaking, how prayer helps align our will with God’s, and why Christians should be praying specifically for people who don’t yet know Christ.

They also explore how to discern God’s direction, the importance of grounding prayer in Scripture, and why prayer isn’t simply asking God to give us what we want. Along the way, Jonathan shares how prayer and God’s guidance played a role in the journey of planting Family Church.

It’s a practical and personal conversation about making prayer a priority, investing in the people God has placed around us, and trusting Him to open the right doors as we seek to share our faith.

As always, Mike and Jonathan mix biblical truth with plenty of humor, tangents, and real-life stories as they continue turning Sunday’s truth into everyday righteousness.
