Let’s be honest: Many (most?) of us Christ-followers do not have a vibrant prayer life.  And it’s usually not because we don’t want to pray regularly and boldly.  It’s because no one ever taught us HOW to pray and really like it.

So, one of the early followers of Jesus asked Him, “Lord, teach us to pray.” And Jesus said, “When you pray, pray this way— Our Father, who art in heaven…”, and then He proceeded to give them (and us) an outline for a daily time of prayer. That’s what this Prayer Summit- Seminar is all about; teaching you how to pray.  If you are a Christ-follower, whatever your background and experience, you can benefit from this Summit.

  • Session 1: You’ll learn how to make praying a delight rather than a drudge. In other words, you’ll learn to like praying, instead of avoiding it.
  • Session 2: Will show you that you can always talk to God… no matter what; no matter how messed up you are, no matter how you feel, no kidding! 
  • Sessions 3 & 4:  You’ll learn how to predetermine your day, how to   prioritize your praying and how to pray in whatever it is that you need.
  • Session 5: Praying for forgiveness, will set the stage for you to live as a person with grace-filled relationships, free from bitterness, hostility and anger.  Sound good?
  • Session 6: Is about spiritual power and protection in your life.  Who doesn’t need more of that?
  • Session 7: Will send you out of your talk-time with God with a sense of vitality and vibrant outlook  that you probably never thought you’d get from praying.

It will take a Friday evening and a Saturday to pack all this into your life. That’s a huge time commitment, I know. You will not regret it; I promise! So lay down any and all excuses.  Just register and set the time aside.
