Growing In Prayer
In this discipleship module we will look at one theme each week. Each theme has four lessons to complete during the week. The first lesson starts with a short video that introduces the subject and key concepts. The remaining three lessons are based on Scripture passages.
These lessons can be completed by yourself, with your family, or in a small group. Consider doing a lesson together after dinner or some other time you are all together.
Each lesson contains three parts:
Head: Teaching and study that engages your mind with God’s word.
Heart: A section where you will apply what you learned.
Hands: Activities where you practice and incorporate into your life what you learned.
Stories of Prayer: Most weeks also include a short video of someone sharing how God has worked in their life.
