An Invitation to Study Prayer … and to Pray
| For several months since the middle of June I’ve been posting about the Bible study Teach Us to Pray—the Practice of Prayer: learning to pray from the Lord’s prayer and teachings of Jesus. These posts were “teasers” to stir up curiosity and interest about the Bible study. Now we, the Teach Us to Pray Team, want to invite you to the Teach Us to Pray Zoom Bible study. Why? Because wherever you are in your faith journey, there is always room to grow in the area of prayer. As a new believer, or a long-time Christian, we all know we should spend time in prayer but, honestly, we can lack the motivation, discipline, and habits necessary to make it a part of our daily routine. |
| This study will answer questions like: -How do I connect with God? -How can I achieve my desire to spend time in prayer when I struggle to make it a priority? -How can I get over feeling lost in knowing what to pray for? And many more. Through this online prayer study, we will use the Psalms and The Lord’s Prayer to: -walk you through what it means to pray, -give you practical steps to grow in prayer, and -help you prepare your heart for time with God. You will also be encouraged by a community of other women practicing the discipline of prayer alongside you. |
At the core of prayer is a relationship with God.
| That is the first prerequisite. So, even if you are not a believer yet, this is a great way to be introduced to what a relationship with God looks like. And as a believer in Jesus Christ, you will learn how to grow in that relationship with Him.* Teach Us to Pray will begin on January 24, 2022 and meet for 10 weeks through Zoom. You must have a computer capable of using Zoom, ideally with a video camera. A smart phone will also work with the Zoom app. If you are interested in joining us, Click Here to Register for Teach Us to Pray.
