What is Prayer?
Prayer is coming home to God. Prayer is being with God. Prayer is listening and talking to God. Prayer is our great adventure and our highest privilege.
Prayer can be a struggle. Sometimes we don’t think it will make a difference, or we rely on ourselves, or we’re just too busy. And even if we do pray regularly, it can feel more like a duty than a delight. Take a moment to pick up and read the book, “Pray First” by Chris Hodges. Let it encourage and empower you.

The practice of prayer is learning to set aside dedicated time to intentionally be with God, in order to become like him and partner with him in the world.

Prayer of Jesus
This, then, is how you should pray:
“‘Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name,your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us today our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one. For yours is the kingdom and glory forever, Amen.”
Matthew 6:9-13
