Does this sound familiar?
-
▾
You’re committed to building prayer as a foundation in your ministry, but prayer meetings are poorly attended (and it’s usually the same few people).
-
▾
Prayer requests are weighed down by crisis needs like a stress-relief shopping list, leaving people feeling overwhelmed or disengaged.
You long for your ministry to be characterized by life-giving corporate prayer energized by the Spirit’s presence.
The reality is far off, and you’re not sure how to turn the prayer tide.
If you want to build a house of prayer, start with your leaders.
Without leaders who intentionally prioritize a culture of kingdom prayer within every sphere of ministry, it remains relegated to the sidelines or non-existent.
Leading Dynamic Prayer equips your leaders with the leadership vision and facilitation skills to bring prayer into the core DNA of your ministry, guiding people back to the heart of Jesus and his kingdom.
Leading Dynamic Prayer invites you to:
-
▾
Gain a holistic vision of character and competencies that make a fruitful prayer leader.
-
▾
Practice prayer facilitation skills to turn every meeting into a prayer-revived gathering energized by the Spirit of God.
-
▾
Discern a prayer discipleship plan that cultivates a culture where prayer deepens unity and engages the world with the presence and mission of Christ.
Word on the Street
Prayer made our meeting better, because we saw God in our midst
Gathering our key leaders and congregation together in a day of prayer built a lot of momentum. We applied prayer leadership principles we learned from Prayer Current, interspersing more prayer throughout our meeting. Some said it was the best church meeting we have ever had. Prayer made our meeting better, because we saw God in our midst.
Jon Adams, Lead Pastor, the Vine Community Church, Atlanta
More listening to God, reflecting, and responding in joyful prayer
“Kingdom-centered prayer is a battlefield…John Smed and his team enter this arena with humility, wisdom and confidence. They teach prayer through a process of praying with reflection. They explore biblical content on prayer and then apply it immediately in small group praying. As a result praxis becomes an ongoing process of listening to God through the Word, reflecting on its implications, and responding in joyful prayer.”
Allen Thompson, (retired) President, International Church Planting Center, Atlanta
From “business meetings” to strong sense of God’s presence
Kingdom prayer is crucial and brings fuel for our spirituality for us as individuals, our church and city. The simple teaching with focus on practicing in small groups was the strength.
Before this training, our church membership meetings were purely "business meetings.” After the training, more elements of prayer were implanted into the meetings, so we prayed for the matters of concern. The sense of God's presence was strong!
Jinsong Yu, Lead Pastor, Emmanuel Alliance Church of Ottawa, Ontario

Why You Need This
-
Building a culture of prayer is not as simple as preaching a few sermons and adding a prayer meeting.
Cultivating a culture of kingdom-expanding prayer requires creative training that goes beyond the typical educational culture that favors lectures and mere talking about the subject instead of actually doing it.
-
Just as preaching or leading small groups effectively requires prayerfully crafting delivery from the outflow of your relationship with Jesus, leading dynamic corporate prayer and weaving prayer through the entire fabric of your ministry requires intentional facilitation and deliberate leadership.
-
Leading Dynamic Prayer equips your leaders with the skills to shape transformative training experiences that are full of insightful interaction and impactful prayer times.
Integrate this into your core leadership training for all leaders, especially small group leaders, and emerging prayer leaders.
