Welcome to the prayer course | Session 3 PETITION

As the Prayer Course begins our third week together I hope you’re beginning to make or deepen your connections with the people in your group as you grow in your relationship with God.

As we get ready for Session 3, here are Pete’s main points from Session 2.

  • Start by recognizing God is God.

  • Worship puts things back into perspective.

  • Use P.R.A.Y – Pause, Rejoice, Ask, Yield.

This week’s update includes some helpful information about Session 3, which launches on January 22, 2023. In Session 3 we’ll unpack the significance of asking God for what we need in prayer.

Pete greig’s BOOK “HOW TO PRAY”

For those who are also reading Pete Greig’s book How to Pray: A Simple Guide for Normal People, please read chapter 5 (Petition) before Session 3’s discussion. Reading the book is not required to get a lot out of this course. Check with your small group leaders to determine what your group will be doing.
