Pray… without SHUTTING-UP?

Pray… without SHUTTING-UP

Ever catch yourself lost in one of THOSE prayers? The kind that starts with praise... and ends somewhere near the book of Revelation after traveling through a past life in… IOWA?

Lester just set the new record. (And yes, this might be his last time opening Bible study.)

Related Verse: "Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances..." — 1 Thessalonians 5:16–18 (ESV)

Note: God hears every word — but your small group appreciates a little brevity when you pray. 😄

Pray… and be DONE ALREADY!

James 5:16 reminds us that "the prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective" — no extra adjectives required. Heartfelt and to the point often hits home best.
