During those years, as she dealt with the ups and downs of campus ministry, caring for a sick child, and the general chaos of life, Amanda found her passion for prayer. Through prayer, God sustained her and brought peace that was beyond understanding (Phil 4:7). Now she is on a mission to share the joys of prayer with others. In her free time, Amanda enjoys being outdoors, creating gifts with her Cricut, and reading.

BREAKOUT SESSION

Deeply Rooted in Prayer

Praying for others is a powerful way to invite God to work in the lives of those around us. It is a practice that not only impacts those we pray for, but that also transforms us to me more and more like Jesus. While intercessory prayer is something we all know we need to do, sometimes we can feel unsure where to start, or how to stay consistent. In this breakout session we will discover the power of intercessory prayer as we look at various examples in the Bible. We’ll discuss concrete ways to intercede for others, as well as ways to keep track of those prayer requests you are praying for. You will walk away more confident to boldly intercede for the world around you.
