Have you ever listened to yourself pray? Did it ever occur to you to think through and analyze your prayers, to examine precisely what you are saying? This provocative course is designed to help us in the way we pray. We will come to see that prayer is a discipline of the Christian life that needs to be exercised according to biblical principles.

Here’s What a Student Has Said!

“It (this course) has changed my prayer life and I now pray on a constant basis, not regulated. I became very much aware about some of my unconfessed sins, when I read Chapter 2. I read it, studied it, mediated on it for a long time and realized – I do have a lot of unconfessed sin. I confessed the big ones, but by reading Chapter 2, thinking about it and reflecting on it, I found I left out of my confessions to God all the ‘little sins’, the little foxes came to the surface. It took time to find them and admit – but now, God and I have talked about them. My prayer life has changed, improved but above all I feel at peace with God because of it. I now understand much more clearly why it does make sense to confess our sins if I expect God to give me my requests. These little ones, I thought they did not matter…I loved this course and thanked God for it!”
