The Small Group Prayer Guide

About this book

Prayer is the lifeblood of any faith community, and small groups provide the intimate setting where people can learn to pray authentically and vulnerably. These 52 approaches and 12 retreat ideas are meant to be adapted to your group's personality, needs, and season. Not every method will resonate with everyone, and that's okay-variety ensures that different people connect with God in ways that suit how He made them.As you lead your group through these prayer experiences, remember that you're not trying to manufacture spiritual experiences or check boxes. You're simply creating space for your community to meet with the living God. Some weeks will feel powerful and others ordinary, but all faithful prayer matters. God delights in His children drawing near, whether with polished words or fumbling phrases.
