Scripture tells us, “The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective” (James 5:16). Why, then, do so many believers feel as though their prayers are powerless and ineffective?
Join Debbie Haddix and Sherry Schumann as they examine hindrances that weaken our prayer life. Debbie invites her audience during the first workshop to take an honest look at the obstacles they encounter as they approach prayer. During the second workshop, Sherry challenges the audience to delve into tough topics such as unforgiveness and pride, which hinder the work of prayer. Both workshops are deeply grounded in God’s Word and offer practical solutions for the stumbling blocks we encounter in our daily prayer life.
