How many of you like to talk? We talk about work, school, friends, food, TV shows, sports, everything and anything. We just like to talk. By spending time together talking we develop a relationship within our family and with one another.

That's what prayer is all about. Prayer is at the very core of a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. Prayer is simply conversation with God. If you are like us, you have a strong and sometimes even desperate desire to establish a stable and healthy household full of the presence and power of God.

We believe that parents today want to be great parents, and they want their children to grow up in a supportive and nurturing home environment. The only way to accomplish that is to make prayer in your home a priority.

Philippians 4:6-7 shows the result of intentional prayer in our home:

"Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus."

If you want that kind of peaceful lifestyle in your home, then you must remember the prayer altar and be intentional in your efforts for Prayer@Home. Any steps you take toward prayer at home will positively impact your life and the lives of every member of your family. Print out the Prayer@Home Guide and the Prayer@Home Calendar and establish the prayer altar in your home.
