Discipleship - Part 1, Lesson 5

Lesson 1 and an intro
Lesson 2
Lesson 3
Lesson 4

Lesson 5 was called "Prayer". It was very interesting to me and one that I was able to get a lot out of. The sections were:
Core truth - What is prayer, and how can a disciple pray effectively? Prayer is a transparent dialogue. It is a conversation with God in which we address him and in quiet are addressed by him. There are four types of prayer, which are summarized by the acronym ACTS. Adoration: Appreciating God for who he is apart from what he has done for us, Confession: acknowledging to God our specific sin and seeking his pardon, Thanksgiving: appreciating God for his benefit to us, and Supplication: interceding for ourselves or others accoring to God's will.
Memory verse - Matthew 6:9-13 (in the context of Matthew 6)
Bible study - Luke 11:5-13, 18:1-8
Reading - How Do We Pray?

If you go to Pathway and haven't joined a discipleship group yet, I encourage you to do so when it becomes available again in the Fall!

About

Hi! I basically use blogs to say to a piece of paper what I can't say as easily to the people I know. I encourage them to read my blog but my guess is most don't. If you read about me here, you will probably know more about me than most people.
