Prayer is the most natural expression of a dependent life — and its absence is one of the most telling signs that we are not actually living by faith.
Discussion Questions
7 questions1.Chan describes prayer as the oxygen of the disciple's life — not an activity added onto the Christian life but the expression of total dependence on God. How does your actual prayer life reflect that description — or contradict it?
2.Jesus's model prayer in Matthew 6 begins with the Father's name, kingdom, and will — before ever getting to our needs. What does that ordering teach about the posture prayer is meant to form in us?
3.Jesus tells the parable of the persistent widow in Luke 18 to encourage his disciples to 'pray and not lose heart.' Have you experienced a season of persistent prayer for something — and what did that experience teach you about God?
