Compassion Class Summary
Jesus Journey Speaker, Ryan Skoog
Quotes:
“There’s this really amazing link between prayer and humility. And as you’re talking about humility, there’s a scripture that says: ‘If my people humble themselves and pray’… it’s almost like humility precedes a life of prayer.”
"The bigger the crowds got, the more it says He [Jesus] withdrew away to pray. And His model was, I need more of heaven, not less, when things get more intense."
Biblical References:
“If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.” - 2 Chronicles 7:14 - NIV

Quotes:
“We carry this confidence in our hearts because of our union with Christ before God. Yet, we don't see ourselves as capable enough to do anything in our own strength, for our true competence flows from God's empowering presence."
Biblical References:
He told them, “The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field.’’ - Luke 10:2 NIV
