This 8-part series will go through the teaching of Jesus on prayer in Matthew 6. Each episode of this 8 part series will discuss one or 2 verses from his teaching on prayer and pull out the lessons and principles that we can apply to our own prayer journey in our personal life and marriage.

Episode 1 will focus on Matthew 6:5 "And when you pray, you must not be like the hypocrites. For they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and at the street corners, that they may be seen by others. Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward."

Here are some of the questions we attempt to answer in this episode.

Why does Jesus teach us to pray?

Am I being a hypocrite when I pray?

What is motivating me to pray?

What reward am I seeking when I pray?

What is true prayer?

And why should we pray for our marriage?

“True prayer is neither a mere mental exercise nor a vocal performance. It is far deeper than that – it is a spiritual transaction with the Creator of Heaven and Earth.” -

Charles Spurgeon
