Recognising that many prayers in the New Testament are in the plural and focus on community, not just individuals, this messages gathers many New Testament Scriptures to teach from Scripture how a church in fellowship together is to be a prayerful church.
Note to preachers This sermon is a collecting of verses all about prayer. I used a power point presentation as I preached so the verses easily followed one another. On the power point I underlines where the words were in the plural to emphasise the community fellowship aspect of prayer. ...read more
