Productivity and prayer can seem at odds with one another, but if we truly believe that prayer is powerful, then it’s also productive! It’s our life-source and a key part in how the Spirit fuels us for kingdom work. This week on the podcast I chat with a professional goal-getter, talk about how our prayer lives can lead to action, and leave you with a prayer for transformation.

Ep. 21 A prayer for transformation
Time spent in the Lord’s presence changes us, but so often we’re going through the motions, rattling off things we need and not pausing long enough to experience all he has for us.
Here's a simple and quick prayer to get you started:
- Release everything and soak in God’s presence
- Tell God your desire for a life that flows from prayer
- Confess ways you try to get by on your own
- Praise God for his power and that He is with you
