Prayer isn’t just a private conversation between God and individuals, it’s also meant to be a conversation between God and his Church. In this session we explore the importance of gathering together to pray, and find out how to get started.

Prayer wasn’t just an activity the early church occasionally made time for; it was woven into everything they did. In this session we look at their example, and explore how we can grow that kind of prayer culture in our churches today.

Throughout the Scriptures, God called his people to come together as family, to worship and pray together. In this session we explore how we can pray together as church family, no matter what our age, background or ability. How can we make sure everyone is included, every voice is heard and every prayer is valued?

The Bible teaches that there is power in united prayer. In this session we examine some of that teaching, and we take a look at how standing together in agreeing prayer can change places and situations.

If the prayer of agreement is powerful,then it stands to reason that it might meet some resistance. In this session we explore the tactics the enemy uses to disrupt and undermine prayer in our churches. How can we recognise them, and how can we overcome them?

A church is a community of all sorts of different people with all sorts of different personalities and gifts. Our prayer warfare is more effective when we understand which role in the prayer battle suits us best. In this session we discover more about the role of the intercessor.

When we pray together as a church, how do we make sure we stay on track, following the leading of the Holy Spirit and fighting the battles God wants us to fight? In this session we explore some of the other tasks which need to be carried out if we’re to be effective in our warfare together.
