A Praying Life

A 5-part series on Connecting with God in a Distracting World

 
Paul Miller, in his new book A Praying Life says, “American culture is probably the hardest place in the world to learn to pray.” In the words of C.S. Lewis we are assaulted by 'the Kingdom of noise.'" Miller says, “prayer is simply the medium through which we experience and connect to God. Oddly enough, many people struggle to learn how to pray because they are focusing on praying, not on God.” In this series of messages during our NEXT Campaign we want to focus on the prayers of Jesus and how He modeled for each of us a Praying Life.
