How to Talk with God

This week we dive into the basics of prayer. Many people hear about prayer, but not many people put it into practice.

We discuss prayer and how God created us to be in a relationship with Him. We also clear up the misconceptions many people have when it comes to prayer

Prayer is Natural

Adam and Eve were designed to live in a constant state of relationship with God

Jesus came to restore that relationship

We were designed to be connected to God

Prayer isn’t a last resort


Prayer is Personal

Every person is different and they communicate differently

When people get married they figure out what works for them as they implement the universal truth of marriage

The same is true with us, we take the truth of God and implement it the way He designed us.


Prayer is Relational

Relationships take communication, connection, and TIME.

Many people think that serving God is just about following “the rules” but it is more than that.

Serving God is getting so close that the behavior of obeying Him comes naturally

The closer we get to God, the less sin will tempt us
