On today's programme, we're delving deep into the true essence of Christian praying. Pastor Colin emphasizes that the goal of such prayer is not to achieve relaxation of the body – it's far more profound.

As we explore this spiritual practice, we must understand that biblical prayer entails engaging the mind, focusing thoughts, and communing with God. A stark contrast to certain forms of mysticism that encourage an empty mind, Christian prayer invites us to fill our mind with God's presence. With the guidance of an open Bible, prayer becomes a dynamic and meaningful dialogue.

For those feeling uncertain about prayer, this broadcast is your stepping-stone – a primer, if you will, on initiating a prayerful life. Pastor Colin shares seven practical pointers on effective prayer, each beginning with the letter 'P', derived from the life and prayers of the prophet Elijah, a man whose prayers were met with divine responses.
