Do you feel comfortable and confident when it comes to prayer? Do you enjoy praying? Do you understand why, as Christians, we pray? Have you experienced the transformative effect of prayer?
Prayer School, a video course, gives you the opportunity to learn and actively engage in the prayer liturgy that pastor and author Brian Zahnd has developed during a lifetime of pastoral ministry. Prayer School will help you gain a fresh perspective on the purpose of prayer and will provide you with a sustainable framework for personal prayer.
