We all agree that prayer is both mandated and powerful. We likewise agree that the collective prayers of church members, called corporate prayer, are important. Mark and Thom offer five simple ways a church needing revitalization can become a greater praying church.
1. Make certain prayer is a vital part of worship services.
2. Find your prayer warriors in the church and ask them for ideas.
3. Preach and teach the importance of corporate prayer.
4. Have special seasons of prayer in the church.
5. Share stories of answered prayers.
