  1. Share one or two ways that today’s teaching from Pastor Randy changed your perspective on prayer. How will this affect your prayer life going forward?

  2. Specifically, how do we sense the “nearness” of God?

  3. Anxiety is a growing problem for all ages today. How does prayer help us with our anxiety?

  4. In what ways does the culture mitigate against prayer? (Deuteronomy 6:1-10) What specific ways can we counteract culture with respect to prayer?

  5. In your daily prayer time, continue to pray for those in your Oikos.  Single out those in your relational world and pray for them by name.  Pray that they would sense God’s presence in their lives, and that God would draw each one to Himself.  Offer yourself to God every day as an instrument in that process.

  6. For those who are parents, what creative ways could we use to impact our children with respect to our series on prayer?

  7. Life Group Leaders: How could this series impact your group?
