Why Do We Pray?

May 17, 2022    Beth Jones

Why do we pray? Do our prayers even make a difference? Isn’t God going to do whatever He wants anyways? These are all great questions and the short answer is this: your prayers MATTER… big time!


Today, let’s talk about why your prayers do matter and why God isn’t just going to do whatever He wants regardless. We’ll dig into the Bible to see why it’s so important that we pray — and that, as Christians, we actually have a responsibility to pray.

Plus, we’ll discuss 7 different types of prayer that you will definitely want to explore as part of a robust prayer life and dynamic relationship with God!
