Reality LA Podcast: The Drop In

Dorcas Adewole on the Practicals of Prayer

Dorcas Adewole drops in to share her journey from Brazil to the UK to LA, Reality LA's prayer team, the temptation to be performative in prayer, asking God for the small things in addition to the big things, surrendering control, and following rather than trying to lead the Holy Spirit when we pray.

Dawnchelle Holmes on Grief and Loss of a Loved One

Dawnchelle Holmes drops in to share the story of losing her mom to cancer, how God meets us in our sorrow, how grief will always be part of life in a fallen world, the importance of community during times of loss, and how to best love those who are grieving.

Jonathan Fitzgerald on Sabbatical and the Gift of Rest

Pastor Jonathan Fitzgerald drops in to discuss rethinking presence, understanding rest as a gift, an unhurried life, and how God does significant work even in the most mundane situations.

Jeremy Treat on the Book of Nehemiah

Pastor Jeremy drops in to discuss grieving our city's losses and needs, participating in God's restorative activity through the combination of practical work and dependent prayer, and how all of this relates to our sermon series through the book of Nehemiah.

Danielle Devlin on Praying When We Don't Have the Strength to Pray

Reality LA Administrative Assistant Danielle Devlin (whose voice you may recognize from leading worship on Sundays!) drops in to discuss fear of disappointment that God won't answer our prayers, the Holy Spirit praying on our behalf, the freedom and boldness to ask God what we want, and trusting God's presence in our lives during hardship.
