Praying Like Monks, Living Like Fools Video Series

In this video study, Tyler Staton delves into how to experience prayer as Jesus promised.

Prayer is an incredible gift, and it has incredible power. But for most of us, there's an equally incredible gap between our own experiences of prayer and Jesus' promises about it. Why is that? What are our roadblocks in praying as Jesus did? How can we discover the power of prayer in our own lives?

In this Bible study, you'll embark on a journey that will lead you from receiving Christ's intercession to interceding with Christ. Staton will unpack the Lord's Prayer into four core practices: adoration, confession, petition, and intercession. But it all starts with the profound realization that Jesus is interceding for us, by name, right now.
