Our Problem with Prayer

Share

In this session, Michael Reeves gets to the heart of our problem with prayer. This is the first of five sessions in Enjoy Your Prayer Life. To access the full series visit Union Grow.

 

 

Sadly, most of us struggle to set aside time to pray. But, fear not, this is not another teaching series that will pile on the guilt, simply saying pray better and more often. Instead, Michael Reeves shows us not only why prayer is so essential, but also how we can enjoy it too.

Taking his cue from Calvin’s definition that prayer is “the chief exercise of faith,” Reeves helps us understand that prayer should be a natural expression of our faith. Just as faith is awakened as we grasp the wonders of the gospel, so prayer follows as our hearts respond to these glorious truths.
