HEAR MY PRAYER By Liz Ditty
Does it matter if we pray?
What we believe about prayer reflects what we believe about God. Maybe you believe God is all-powerful and wise, but not attentive to your little corner of the world? The Bible tells us a different story. Over and over again, we are reminded that God is both great and good, and that we are cared for and fully known by him. So God welcomes all our prayers and invites us to pray about everything—to entrust him with all things both big and small, joyful and enraging, and to pray fervently.
Whether you consider yourself a prayer warrior or prayer newbie (and maybe even a prayer skeptic), you are invited to join this seven-week Bible study experience. Liz Ditty, an experienced spiritual director and retreat leader, invites groups and individuals to borrow prayers from Jesus, Elijah, and countless others to experience dozens of ways to pray alone and together. As she engages the story of Elijah and his encounters with God, she guides us toward less awkward, more authentic prayer.
