ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you."
John 15:7
You've likely scratched your head over this verse, wondering how literally to take it. Could Jesus have been serious about His over-the-top declaration? Can you really ask for anything?
If you think these words can't possibly mean what they say, Craig Hazen wants to reveal the astonishing reality of this promise. You'll learn why Christians hesitate to embrace this powerful statement and how you can put it to work in your life for the sake of God's kingdom.
According to the Lord himself, "asking" is the center point of prayer. He wants us to bring our fruit-bearing requests to him boldly and with expectation for the blessing of his answer.
He wants to hear our Fearless Prayer!

We are a 501c3, non-profit organization with more than 60 years of experience and a long track record of financial integrity.
And we are also a group of friends—a mix of office staff, board members, field representatives, and many, many regular people who stand against persecution. Although we haven’t met every one of our readers and supporters face-to-face, we count each of them as an important part of our work.
The Probe Ministries’ Student Mind Games Conference is a time-tested experience that changes minds and hearts forever! Probe teachers delight in reassuring students that asking questions and expressing doubt is not only important for spiritual health, it is one way we can love God with our minds!
This 51⁄2-day conference is a total immersion faith-bolstering experience tailored to high school and college students. We begin by laying a biblical worldview foundation to equip students to recognize truth and error in culture and the classroom. We test-drive this skill by identifying various competing explanations of life offered by college professors, media figures and entertainment producers.
Students then build confidence in their faith through classical and cultural apologetics. We carefully exam- ine the evidence behind the claims that Jesus is God and the Bible is trustworthy. Then we explore a biblical view of science, sexuality, human nature, art, evil and suffering, and world religions
