THERE ARE SOME MANY OPINIONS AND VIEWS ABOUT PRAYER...
Our world, and even our churches, are saturated with teaching on prayer which can lean so extreme in one direction or another that they cease to be biblically centered and accurate. Prayer is a subject that carries much misunderstanding and misinterpretation of scripture, often by accident and at times with intention. We hope to be a church that has a heart for prayer, but also a church that carries an accurate and biblical view of what prayer is and what is it not. In every situation, we desire to be a people who look to God and to communicate with him, not as a last resort, but as our first response.
