Welcome to the prayer course | Session 5 UNANSWERED PRAYER

As we continue the Prayer Course on our fifth week together, we hope the conversations have been deepening between you and the members of your group, and that you’re continuing to grow a life of prayer.

As we get ready for Session 5, here are Pete’s main points from Session 4.

  • When God’s people intercedes, God intervenes.

  • There is power in our free will.

  • The 4 steps of intercession: get informed, get inspired, get indignant, get in synch.

In Session 5, we’ll be tackling the challenges and realities when our prayers aren’t answered.

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 7 (Unanswered Prayer) before Session 5’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.
