"Should I clasp my hands together?" "Should I open my eyes?" Remember: the heart of prayer is way more important than the form, although we need to be mindful that he is God! [Click below for short study & resources!]

If you are new to Christian prayer, this video will give you a basic framework on how you can start this wonderful practice.

[Read Matt 6:7-13]

1. What did Jesus caution about the heart attitude during prayer?


2. Identify any components of A-C-T-S in Jesus' prayer.
