Before You Read: How Prayer Shapes Our Time With God | Week Four

May 14, 2025 | In this heartfelt chapel message, we wrap up a series on the SOAP method—Scripture, Observation, Application, and Prayer—by focusing on how prayer shapes our time with God. With personal stories, biblical examples from Jesus, and wisdom from voices like E.M. Bounds and Brother Steve Gaines, this episode challenges us to treat prayer not as a formality, but as the foundation of our spiritual lives. You'll be encouraged to pray before, during, and after reading Scripture, to approach God with reverence and honesty, and to remember that even the smallest prayer matters to the God who hears.
