For Christians, one of our earliest lessons―and greatest gifts―is learning how to pray. And yet many of us believe our prayer lives fall short. Dr. John Koessler will reassure us that this has nothing to do with motivation or method. Our problems are relational, and recognizing this is the first step to having a better prayer life. Prayer is a conversation that moves primarily in one direction: from the believer who prays to the God who hears. If God appears silent, that does not mean that He is unresponsive. We always have God's attention. We are invited to gain a sense of God, of His goodness, and the rich welcome that is waiting for us every time we approach Him in the name of Jesus Christ.
