Recently I was struck
by how much the heritage of prayer can have an affect on a church long
term. Our host church for the upcoming Empowered 2008 (June 11-13),
Shandon Baptist in Columbia, SC is a perfect example.

Sparking a passion for more prayer is the goal of the CPLN/Pray! magazine sponsored regional conferences this fall.

. . . we may only have a one-side-of-the-coin understanding of repentance.

Should We Pray for the Lost? |
|
|
|
|
By Jonathan Graf
I have a close friend who believes that we do not need to
pray for the lost. His reasoning is that nowhere in scripture does it say that
we are to pray for the lost. There are commands to pray for a few things—the
peace of Jerusalem,
laborers for the harvest, pray for your enemy—but nowhere does it command us to
pray for the lost.

This daily devotional
(which is easily adapted for small group or Sunday school class use) is
an excellent resource to help people catch a vision for praying for
lost neighbors, then moving out to care for them and share the love of
Christ with them.

How to Build a House of Prayer |
|
|
|
|
By Dave Butts
Knowing that God’s House is to be a House of Prayer is one
thing. Knowing how to build that House is another. The Bible tells us that
unless the Lord builds the house, those who labor, labor in vain. That is especially
so when we are speaking of a local congregation that becomes so impacted and
driven by prayer that it truly could be called a House of Prayer.
