Position Statement: Prayer

I am thankful for the opportunity to study about prayer. There are times when prayer feels natural to me: I understand how to communicate with God and I am happy to do it. Then there are times when prayer feels awkward and ineffective. It feels as though God is far away and his responses to my prayers are delayed or hard to understand. Thus, I am grateful for the simple, beautiful way that the apostles describe prayer. Their words are a good reminder that I should pray sincerely and often. Prayer is a skill that I must work to improve.
