Talking With God

A Practical Guide to Prayer

Build a prayer life that’s real, sustainable, and deeply connected to God. This 6-week series covers adoration, confession, listening, and persevering prayer.

  1. Why Pray?

    The purpose of prayer
    Matthew 6:5-8, Luke 11:1-4
    Main Point

    Prayer isn't about informing God — it's about being transformed by the conversation.

  2. The Prayer Jesus Taught

    The Lord's Prayer as a framework
    Matthew 6:9-13
    Main Point

    The Lord's Prayer isn't just words to recite — it's a framework for an entire life of prayer.

  3. Bold Access

    Confidence in approaching God
    Hebrews 4:14-16, Ephesians 3:12
    Main Point

    You don't need to clean yourself up before coming to God — the throne of grace is for the messy, the broken, and the desperate.

  4. When God Is Silent

    Praying through the silence
    Psalm 22:1-11, Habakkuk 1:1-4
    Main Point

    God's silence is not His absence — sometimes He's doing His deepest work in the quiet.

  5. Praying Together

    The power of corporate prayer
    Acts 4:23-31, Matthew 18:19-20
    Main Point

    Something shifts when God's people pray together — the early church proved it over and over.

  6. A Life of Prayer

    Making prayer a lifestyle
    1 Thessalonians 5:16-18, Colossians 4:2
    Main Point

    Prayer isn't a slot in your schedule — it's the soundtrack of your entire life.
