Focusing your small group on learning to pray is one of the most meaningful ways to cultivate spiritual maturity and authentic community. As members grow in their confidence and consistency, you’ll begin to see how prayer transforms individuals and unites the group in purpose and faith. Prayer isn’t just something to talk about—it’s something to do together, with love, humility, and expectation.
Prayer is one of the most essential parts of the Christian life, yet it’s often one of the most misunderstood or neglected. Many believers admit they’re unsure how to pray or feel awkward doing so, especially in a group. This is why guiding your small group toward learning to pray can bring about significant spiritual growth and transformation. A small group creates a welcoming environment where people can explore, practice, and deepen their connection with God through prayer.
