We hope this study is beneficial to you in your discipleship and learning pursuits as you seek to apply this wonderful book to your life.

Prayer can be a complicated subject. Most Christians will agree that prayer is a vital part of the Christian faith, and yet at the same time, most Christians don’t spend much of their time doing it. Prayer is challenging and can be confusing. It is hard to sit still, to focus your attention, to actually bring your fears, worries, and desires to the Lord. And when we do, the results are often mixed. Discuss ways your prayers can be more personal and powerful, and learn how to establish a practice of prayer that works for you.

Tim Keller’s Prayer: Experiencing Awe and Intimacy with God will take you through the practical methods and ways to pray, the traditions of prayer, the history of prayer, and the struggles of prayer all with the goal of leading us to deeply believe that a life of prayer is both essential and life changing. 

In this Journey Section you will:

  • Learn about two kinds of prayer and look at your own prayer life
  • Explore what prayer is and what it is not
  • Look at how you can begin to grow in your prayer life
  • Consider how you can deepen your prayer life and open yourself to the heart of God
  • Move toward establishing a lifetime of prayer
