Studies show that over 90% of professing Christians don't actively practice the discipline of prayer.
Several years ago, I read A Praying Life by Paul Miller. This book profoundly shifted my perspective and helped me discover the true joy of prayer. I recently connected with Adam Barker, who serves as the Southwest Coordinator for seeJesus, the ministry which works in conjunction with this book. He joins the show for a refreshing and insightful conversation. We talk about how the biggest prerequisite to a life of consistent prayer is recognizing our own helplessness. He helps us shift our thinking from answered vs. unanswered prayers toward entering God's story, and introduces a practical tool that can make prayer a part of the daily rhythm of our lives.
Show Notes
A Praying Life by Paul Miller
IG: @seeingjesus
“The prerequisite for a praying life is helplessness.”
“Sometimes the fruit is not that I see a prayer answered, but the peace that I have and the reassurance that God is at work in this situation and it does not depend on me and my control of it.”
“We enter the Father’s story when we pray.”
