Do you find it easy to pray? Is prayer an integral part of your day? Do you hear God's voice in your daily life and know how to respond accordingly? For many of us, the answer to these questions is, "no". For most of us, prayer becomes a source of frustration as we struggle to calm our minds and find even a few minutes to set aside to pray. Over the course of 8 weeks, this study will teach you the essentials of an effective and fruitful prayer life. You will discover how God speaks to you, even in the smallest encounters.
