7 Ways to Pray for the Middle East this October

Listen Later

Welcome to 7 ways to Pray, a monthly podcast brought to you by SAT-7. 

When we watch the news and see some of the huge challenges facing the Middle East and North Africa, it can be hard to know how to pray. In this podcast, we’ll share a round-up of 7 key prayer points, to guide and inspire you in your prayers for the region. 

Each month, we’ll go beyond the headlines to share the human stories you won’t hear on the news – and together, we’ll lift them up before God. We’ll also pray for SAT-7’s life-giving media ministry, which brings the joy of Christ to millions across the region.  

Thank you for joining us in prayer.
