Purposed to Pray

Book Study, Prayer, Young Adults

This small group is designed for teenagers and young adults ages 16–20 who want to build a strong spiritual foundation in prayer. With so many challenges, pressures, and influences in the world today, young people need to be spiritually equipped to stand strong. The Bible reminds us, “For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, powers, and the rulers of the darkness of this world” (Ephesians 6:12)—which means prayer is not optional, it is essential. Using the book Connecting Earth and Heaven by Samaila Amoanu, we will explore what prayer truly is, why it matters, and how to build a meaningful and powerful prayer life. This group will be a safe and uplifting space to learn, grow, ask questions, and deepen our relationship with God. Together, we will discover that prayer is more than words—it is a weapon, a source of peace, and our lifeline to God’s power as we navigate life’s challenges and purpose.
