Praying Together III: Priming the Pump

We’ve now spent two weeks focusing on the corporate prayer service. It is our prayer that, if you are not participating in your church’s prayer service, or if your church does not have one, you will find a way to begin this sweet means of grace.

In this episode, Jeremy Walker and Teddy James discuss some helpful resources on learning to pray, both privately and corporately. Teddy also asks Jeremy for his counsel toward those in churches without a prayer service. How can a pastor begin to lead his flock toward this precious practice? How can a church member encourage his or her pastor to consider it?

Next week we will wrap up this series with the second sermon from Jeremy Walker, which offers counsel to those sitting in the prayer service and not praying aloud. This is not an hour of passiveness for them. It should be a time of great, intentional activity.
