Welcome to the newest podcast of Denver Institute for Faith & Work: Teach Us To Pray! Hosted by Jeff Hoffmeyer, Vice President of Advancement, this podcast seeks to focus on the practice of prayer through scripture as a primary way to know, trust, and rest in God in our daily work and life.

Episode 10: There is a temptation to not only define ourselves but what we do, but also to reduce God to what he does. How to pray so as to focus on who God is.

Matthew 4:5-7

"5 Then the devil took him to the holy city and had him stand on the highest point of the temple. 6 “If you are the Son of God,” he said, “throw yourself down. For it is written:

“‘He will command his angels concerning you,
    and they will lift you up in their hands,
    so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.’

7 Jesus answered him, “It is also written: ‘Do not put the Lord your God to the test.’"
