Course Description

ARE YOU READY FOR THE SUMMIT!

Let's face it--personal prayer is challenging! It's challenging because, at its core, personal prayer is a relationship, and healthy relationships take effort. Don't despair, though! Now, you have access to an amazing resource that will help you deepen and develop your relationship with God through personal prayer!

The Personal Prayer Summit is for everyone interested in a more meaningful and intimate relationship with God through personal prayer! During the Summit, you will enjoy four webinars covering the following important and essential topics--

  • Webinar 1:  3 Spiritual Gifts You Already Have and How to Enjoy Them (Thursday November 2nd at 6pm CST)
  • Webinar 2:  7 Characteristics of Healthy Personal Prayer (Thursday November 9th at 6pm CST)
  • Webinar 3:  5 Meaningful Aspects of Personal Prayer (Thursday November 16th at 6pm CST)
  • Webinar 4:  Frequently Asked Questions about Personal Prayer (Monday November 20th at 6pm CST)

In addition to the webinars, there are four free videos lessons that help Spiritual Directors apply the teachings of the Summit to their ministry! Those four brief presentations include--

  • Presentation 1:  Ways to Encourage Deeper Desire, Humility, and Generosity
  • Presentation 2:  Discerning the Health of Your Directee's Personal Prayer
  • Presentation 3:  Setting Aside Our Expectations
  • Presentation 4:  3 Important Reminders about Resistance

In addition to these webinars and presentations, you'll receive prayer guides with nearly a month's worth of daily prayer starters that help you to apply what you've learned during the Summit!

This was the most meaningful course on prayer that I have ever experienced. Somehow it has enabled me to organize my prayer sessions from two to one each day and to be able to concentrate more deeply. I particularly like the daily meditations Tom wrote for each day of the Summit. I used these to journal each day and that habit has helped me continue to journal daily--something I had not been doing before. The journaling has also allowed me to stick with a topic of conversation by looking back to my last entry to see where I was with God in prayer. I also like the webinar concept that Tom used; it allows us to come back and review the presentations. Lastly, I like the weekly presentations--they give us more time to catch up and organize. Well done, Tom!

This webinar helped get me back on track with my personal prayer life which had been sporadic for some time. The lectures were less than an hour long, and I was able to join after work in the evening and still have time for other things.
