Discussion Questions
  • At a basic level, what is prayer? Do we do this with people other than God?
    • What does this“prayer” that happens with those other people do in those relationships?
  • How does a readiness to pray at the beginning of something, like problem-solving or a task, shape us? What about our dependence?
  • What is the relationship between what we really care most about and our prayers? What then can we learn from someone that prays for missionaries?
  • Based on Paul’s prayer requests in 2 Thessalonians 3:1-2, what should our prayers be for and our priorities be?
  • What happens in people who pray in a group?
