Do you ever have those moments when you step back and ask “why am I even doing this?” Have you ever done this with prayer? If we’re being honest, we have all had moments when we don’t really know why we pray. We have been told it’s a good, godly thing to do, but if someone asked “why should we pray?”, we might not know what to say. In our 8th week of our Teach Us to Pray series, we will look at the life of Jesus, and answer the question “why pray?”

From Series: "Teach Us to Pray"

Do you struggle with knowing how to pray, or wonder if God really hears your prayers? Many of us long to have a deeper prayer life -- and draw closer to God -- but we aren't sure how to grow in this spiritual discipline. The disciples asked Jesus directly, “Lord, teach us to pray." Jesus taught them a simple, powerful way to talk with God – we know it as the Lord’s Prayer. Most of us know that prayer by heart, but like the disciples, we often have misconceptions and fears about prayer. In the midst of our questions, God invites us to bring everything to him in prayer. God wants to be in a deep, close relationship with you, grow you as a disciple, and empower you to make disciples. The same is true for Christ The Rock as a community of believers -- and if we are really going to make that happen, we need to be a church that prioritizes prayer. We can’t do it in our own strength.
