    Episode 282: The Theology of Prayer & Certainty 2026

    Prayer is one of the most familiar practices in Christianity—and yet it may be one of the least understood. In Episode 282 of The Postscript Show, Brandon Briscoe sits down with Pastor Troy Stogsdill to discuss the biblical theology of prayer and to preview this year's Certainty Conference: The Theology of Prayer. What actually happens when we pray? Does prayer change things? What does it mean to pray "in Jesus' name"? How should we understand God's promises to answer prayer? And how does prayer relate to God's sovereignty, providence, and His work through the local church? Brandon and Troy discuss: • Why prayer is fundamentally an act of worship• Prayer as a relationship and spiritual connection with God• How Jesus' prayer life teaches us dependence upon the Father• Why prayer prepares us for temptation, suffering, and ministry• What it means when God answers prayer differently than we expected• God's sovereignty and man's responsibility in prayer• Whether our prayers can genuinely move God to act• Why the Great Commission must be accompanied by prayer• How prayer relates to evangelism, church planting, and spiritual fruitfulness• The danger of becoming self-sufficient in ministry• Why churches in these last days should not give up on fruitfulness The discussion ultimately challenges believers to move beyond treating prayer as either a way to manipulate circumstances or merely a mystical experience. Biblical prayer brings us before God in worship, faith, submission, and dependence—and it has profound implications for the mission of the church. Troy also shares what listeners can expect from the upcoming Certainty Conference, including teaching on the doctrine and practice of prayer and a fellowship-wide time of prayer.

    Episode 281: The Persecuted Church in Nigeria: What Is Our Responsibility?

    While much of the Western church experiences Christianity with relative freedom and security, millions of believers live in places where identifying with Christ can cost them their homes, their families, their livelihoods, and even their lives. Few places illustrate that reality more tragically than Nigeria. For years, Christians throughout Nigeria—particularly in the northern and central regions of the country—have endured violence, displacement, kidnapping, and the destruction of their churches and communities at the hands of Islamic extremists and militant groups. But behind the statistics are real believers, pastors, widows, children, and churches learning what it means to follow Christ in the midst of suffering. Persecution isn't simply a humanitarian or political issue—for Christians, it is a biblical reality. Scripture tells us to expect persecution, teaches us how believers should respond when it comes, and commands the church to remember and care for those who suffer for the name of Christ. That means our response must be informed not merely by outrage or politics, but by a distinctly biblical philosophy of ministry. In this episode of The Postscript, we are joined by Brad Brandon, founder and CEO of Across Nigeria, a ministry serving some of the most vulnerable and persecuted communities in Nigeria. Brad helps us understand what Nigerian Christians are experiencing, what the Bible teaches about persecution and our responsibility toward the persecuted, and how those convictions have shaped the philosophy and methodology of Across Nigeria. Please pray for the persecuted church in Nigeria, for the widows and families affected by violence, for those proclaiming Christ in dangerous places, and for Muslims who have yet to hear the Gospel. Learn more about Across Nigeria and consider how you can pray for and support this ministry.
