"How can I lead my church to be more prayerful?"

It’s a simple question. It’s one that an Acts 29 pastor asked Terry Virgo at our Northwest Regional meeting in March.

It’s a simple question. It’s also a great question.

Terry gave a simple but great answer:

The pastor has to model what it means to be a man of prayer.

Not to impress people, but simply to show them what it means to be prayerful.

Earlier that day, Terry taught a group of pastors what it means to be men of prayer. I went to the regional meeting out of obligation—it’s my job to be there. I drove home thanking God for my job and that it allowed me to be there. Virgo’s talk on prayer was helpful and convicting. It’s the best stuff I’ve heard on prayer in a long time. God has used Terry’s talk to help deepen my understanding of prayer and encourage me in my personal prayer life. I hope he’ll do the same for you.
