Jesus said "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest."

Despite this wonderful promise, we often allow hurry and distraction keep us from spending focused time with Christ in prayer. How can we build discipline in this area and how can we grow in our prayer lives?

On this episode we are joined by Asheritah Ciuciu as we discuss a pattern for prayer that can help you deepen your communion with Christ and resist distraction when praying.

On this episode we discuss:

  • How Asheritah's book seeks to help others develop the habit of daily prayer
  • How the acronym of REST can help us focus our prayers and take the time to be still before the Lord
  • What we learn about prayer by looking at prayers in Scripture
  • The value of praying through passages in the Bible
  • How we can cultivate the discipline of prayer in our personal lives and in our homes
