Message: “What is Prayer?” from Brian Richardson

We often approach prayer as words or thoughts we express TO God, or maybe ABOUT God. But if prayer is not a conversation WITH God, then we never really understand or experience all that God has for us. Especially when we presume that prayer begins when we speak first.

From Series: "Teach Us to Pray"

Eugene Peterson writes, “a life of prayer is the connective tissue between holy day proclamation and weekday discipleship.” Prayer is the glue between the times we are FILLED UP and those when we're POURED OUT. Jesus’ invitation to come--to follow--is an invitation to know Him. We learn about others by talking, sharing, and listening. “Teach Us to Pray” is two-way conversation about prayer…about knowing God. Our talks will include the “what” and the “why” of prayer, the importance of intercession, and how to talk with God and not just at Him. During this series you are also invited to join us in 30 days of prayer and fasting…intentionally creating capacity for us to know God more!
