Prayer

Prayer is an essential spiritual practice that connects us with God and others.

Prayer is how we communicate with God, and it is also a way in which we can come alongside others and provide support. Somewhere in these exchanges of love, God can do some awesome things in our lives and the people around us.

Prayer is spiritual breathing; it’s how we communicate with and seek to hear from the God of the universe. We see throughout Scripture how a healthy prayer life is essential for our relationship with God. Jesus modeled what this looks like with his regular rhythms of getting away to seek his Father in prayer (Mark 1:35, Luke 5:15-16, Matthew 14:23, etc.) We are called to “pray without ceasing” (1 Thessalonians 5:17) and “pray in the Spirit” (Ephesians 6:18) but what does
that really mean?

For many of us, prayer can feel like an afterthought, or something we feel like we ought to be doing, but are perhaps unsure how to begin. Like any relationship, the more time and effort we invest in prayer, the more natural it begins to feel and the more rich and rewarding it becomes. Learning to become a praying people is a process of learning how to recognize, understand, and respond to the heart of God in our lives and in the world around us.

We believe that God shows up in miraculous and powerful ways as we
intentionally seek Him.
