What does the Lord want us to do in prayer? We are to "pray without ceasing". Obviously this will require labor so what are some of the areas that Christ prayed for?

I. Pray for Protection - (vs.15) Jesus prayed for them to be kept from the evil one. In vs. 20 he expands his request to all believers.

II. Pray for Sanctification - (vs.17) "Through your truth"  This is the truth of God's word (the Bible)

III. Pray for Unity - (vs.21) "that they all may be one".  This is the unity of the truth of the gospel and also the unity of having the same eternal destination.

Just how reliable is the Bible? Is it just a collection of books written by men or is it the holy word of God? How did the collection of 66 books come together as the Bible we know it today?  Have some books been left out of the Bible? Listen to this muti-week study as we explore these questons and more about the bible and how reliable it really is.

This week's discussion includes a general overview, the Dead Sea Scrolls, slavery and the Bible, and how did people in the Old Testament live for 700, 800 to even 900 years?
