This Sunday, we begin a short (4 Sunday) Summer Preaching series about prayer. Prayer is the most familiar of all spiritual practices. We pray together every week in worship. Everyone knows we’re “supposed” to pray daily–even to “pray without ceasing!” But if we surveyed the NDPC congregation, we’d probably find that many of us secretly–even ashamedly–struggle with prayer.

Our series, “Prayer for People Who Have Trouble Praying,” will speak to the struggles many of us have with prayer. We’ll look at 4 famous prayers:
The Lord’s Prayer (June 22)
The Breastplate of St. Patrick (June 29)
The Serenity Prayer (July 20)
The Merton Prayer (July 27)
Each week, we’ll explore how these prayers teach us not only how to talk to God, but how to pray in a way that is honest and real.
