Prayer is the most basic form of conversation with God. Prayer can be corporate, as when a small group or even a whole congregation prays together, or it can be personal, as when we pray individually. It can be spoken or sung, read or though. It can be formal or informal, ritual or spontaneous.
Most Christians pray in a variety of ways on a daily basis and find their relationship with their Lord to be deeper and fruitful when they do. Whether you are a person of regular prayer or a beginner, you will find here a place to start or expand your prayer life. No matter what step you take next, God answers the deepest needs of your heart. |
