Episode 430: Just Start Talking | Learning to Pray, Week 1 | Psalm 13

Have you ever felt like you’re not very good at prayer? Maybe you don’t know what to say, your mind wanders, God feels distant, or you’ve prayed about something for a long time and nothing seems to have changed. In the first message of Learning to Pray: Growing a Real Relationship with God, Pastor Mark Reynolds explores Psalm 13 and the remarkable honesty of the Psalms. Prayer isn’t about finding perfect words, mastering a spiritual technique, or pretending to be more faithful than we really are. At its heart, prayer is about relationship with God—and we can bring our whole, honest selves into that relationship. Whether you come with gratitude, fear, doubt, anger, questions, or simply don’t know what to say, you can begin exactly where you are. God already knows you. God already loves you. Grace has already reached toward you. You don’t have to be good at prayer. Just start talking.
