Prayer Ministry

The Bible teaches us to pray without ceasing, but many Christians struggle with prayer. Is there a right way to pray? How should we address a holy God? Does prayer really change things? Even Jesus’ disciples understood there was something lacking in their prayer life after they observed Jesus in prayer. When Jesus taught His disciples to pray, He gave them a model of prayer as an example to follow in communing with God. In The Prayer of the Lord, Dr. R.C. Sproul helps us understand how to pray according to the pattern Jesus set for us.

Adrian Roger's last written manuscript before his passing in 2005 has been edited and brought together by his son Steve as a final joint work. When We Say Father takes the Lord's Prayer and breaks it down to its most basic components for readers to easily learn how to pray from the ultimate source, Jesus himself.

We were not created to just get by with average, unrewarding or unfulfilling lives. God created us to leave our marks on our generations.

As Christians, we often struggle to find the words to speak in the presence of God. Praying to God may feel foreign or like a ritual, and adding to that frustration, we worry that God isn't listening. Even if he hears, will he reply?

God wants you to be a prayer warrior and will help you.

Christians have proclaimed the good news about Jesus for centuries. But the good news isn't sounding so good these days, at least to some. More and more surveys show that people view Christians as bearers of bad news, judgment, and intolerance. In Vanishing Grace, best-selling author Philip Yancey acknowledges the problem and then explores how we can respond with both grace and truth. He offers a discerning look at what contributes to a hostility toward Christians, and identifies three groups - pilgrims, artists, and activists - who can show us a different way.

Here is practical help for active, honest praying that involves all of who we are - heart, hands and head - and moves us to deeper obedience, joy and intimacy with our Father.

Master the biblical art of receiving from Heaven. Many Christians feel that their prayers produce no results, and that God remains distant, despite their pursuit of him. Why? Because many are seeking blessings and realities that are already available and accessible! The key to a fulfilling prayer life and an intimate relationship with God is not found in striving - it's found in simply receiving. In the biblical art of receiving from Heaven, we simply say “yes” to the lavish blessings that Jesus has already made available to every believer.
