If you’re praying this way you are doing it all wrong

If you’re praying like this, you’re praying wrong. Prayer was never meant to feel like a burden or become only a list of requests. What if you could stop striving and simply enjoy being with God? Join me for a time of worship, prayer, and teaching on how to spend time in God’s presence. We’ll talk about stillness, what it means to commune with the Father, and how contemplating Jesus in Scripture can change the way we pray. We’ll also look at Jehoshaphat and Paul and Silas to see how worship becomes our response in difficult times. If prayer has felt exhausting or you’ve wondered how to grow closer to God, take your time with this stream. You don’t have to perform for Him. Come and be with Him.
