In this episode of Your Week with St. Luke’s, we kick off our new series called Belong, where we’ll explore the vows United Methodists take to support the church with prayers, presence, gifts, service, and witness. This week, we’re joined by Brett Opalinski, United Methodist Pastor and Assistant Dean of Methodist Studies at the Candler School of Theology, for a discussion on prayers. Drawing on examples from early Christianity and personal experiences, he illustrates how prayer can ground our lives and transform our relationship with God. He’ll guide us through some practical suggestions and show us how prayer can be a transformative practice that connects individuals to God and strengthens the church community.
