Luke 11:3

We recognize the importance of communication in relationships, and our relationship with God is no exception. God longs for us to communicate with him in prayer—a discipline that even His Son, Jesus, practiced. In this plan, you’ll learn from Jesus’ example, and you’ll be challenged to step out of the traffic of life and experience for yourself the strength and guidance prayer provides.
