a praying life: connecting with god in a distracting world
Nearly every believer could say, "I wish my prayer life was better." Many of us are quietly defeated in our private prayer lives. We've tried praying, but it just doesn't seem to work. Our mind wanders, we forget things, we struggle with what to say, or we feel like we don't need to bother God with our minor issues. We feel frustrated that this important spiritual discipline isn't what we want it to be, and guilty that we don't pray like we think we should. So our prayer life can stagnate, or perhaps we stop praying entirely.
This class seeks to help push us all into a deeper, more intimate lifestyle of prayer. To come to our Father as a child would, honestly and passionately. To foster humility and dependence on God, rather than the pride and self-sufficiency our culture tells us we need. As God's children, we must be comfortable having a private conversation with our Father.
We will use the book A Praying Life by Paul E. Miller as a framework for this class. It is not required to purchase or read this book to participate in the class, though you may find it helpful to do so. Come join us on Sunday mornings as we seek to connect with God in a distracting world.

how the holy spirit wants to change your life
The Holy Spirit is the third Person of the Trinity.

Understanding what the Holy Spirit wants to accomplish and how to cooperate with Him is one of the more important spiritual truths to understand.
