About this Event
Why join a prayer cohort?
In this highly personalized, 10-week prayer training, you'll gather with an experienced prayer trainer and a small group of others via ZOOM. Together, you'll begin building a set of 5 or more personal prayer cards to use as you pray through key areas of your life. As you gather each week, you will:
- Grow in wisdom and faith
- Experience the accountability and encouragement of praying together
- See God at work in your life and the lives of others through prayer stories
What is a prayer story?
From the proven training of the book A Praying Life by Paul Miller, prayer stories are more than simply an answer to prayer to check off a list. Prayer stories emphasize that God is at work in the larger picture of our lives and of redemption. As you pray together, you will see God at work in the lives of others, and be encouraged to keep asking—even when you don’t yet see movement in your own prayer story.
What happens in a cohort meeting?
We pray and we learn to pray through a combination of book study, open discussion, and application of new ideas in our personal lives.

What People Are Saying
The prayer cohort has been a boot camp for my soul. Just like any other life skill, training and practice in prayer are critical to improvement... and this cohort has provided just what I needed.

Prayer is often the first thing sacrificed as we try to finish our daily to-do list. But prayer focuses our attention on our Heavenly Father who grants us the grace and strength that we daily need. And when we pray with other brothers, we see our Father working not only in our lives but in each other's lives.

This helped my feeling of isolation as I discovered I'm not the only one that struggles, gets tired, and fails. After weeks of praying with these men, they may be my closest friends.
