Prayer Guide

At the beginning of most weeks, I share a short prayer guide, offering words and practices that will help you see, hear, and experience more of God in your daily life.

This isn’t meant to be a scary commitment, rather one that reignites a desire to learn what prayer was always meant to be.

Commit yourself to reading a short Prayer Guide that will offer a fresh perspective and a meaningful challenge.

Praying Like This Will Transform Your Year

You’ll notice the prayer begins by placing our attention on God, the One who inhabits the heavens, the One who upholds all things by the word of His power. Once we’re settled in His tender holiness and the surety of His will, we then move into our requests, our fears, our trials, our pains. They all have a place in our prayers, and I encourage you to make each line specific to you, the people in your world, the cares of your day, and trials in your way.

The Essential Attribute for Spiritual Health

I want to challenge you to spend some time this week praying through Luke 15. As you read about the sheep, the coins, the sons, place yourself in these stories. You’ll see that Jesus tells of a costly joy—one that comes with forgiveness and repentance, seeking and finding, tears and confusion. A joy that, in this broken world, can feel easy to lose . . . yet something inside us knows it’s always worth finding again.
