America, Pray Now Podcast

During the darkest years of the Civil War, something began spreading through the Confederate camps that no general could command and no military strategy could explain. Men hardened by war—surrounded by profanity, fear, death, and despair—began to pray. Chaplains who once struggled to gather soldiers for services suddenly witnessed hearts turning to God in repentance.In this episode, America Pray Now Prayer Partner Lise Pampaloni shares the remarkable story of the revival that swept through the camps and the desperation that drove men to seek the Lord. Discover how God met them in one of the darkest moments in American history—and why that same awakening is still needed today.-------America Pray Now publishes a magazine on prayer that is free of charge and can be delivered directly to your home.

This episode explores a powerful truth from Psalm 5: peace doesn’t come after the answer—it comes through prayer. When we begin by fixing our eyes on who God is—our Father who is able to do the impossible—something shifts within us.Through the pattern of prayer seen in David’s life, we move from bold petitions to deep, unshakable peace. Like a child resting calmly on a turbulent flight because she knows her father is the pilot, we too can experience confidence in the middle of life’s storms.Join America Pray Now Leader, Josiah Alway, as he shares how bringing our requests before God—and trusting His character—leads not just to answers, but to rest.-------America Pray Now publishes a magazine on prayer that is free of charge and can be delivered directly to your home.

What if the greatest need in our lives—and in our nation—is simply this: to return to prayer?In this episode, we dive into Psalm 5 and uncover two life-changing truths—the priority of prayer and the posture of prayer. David began his day seeking the Lord, setting a pattern that echoes through Scripture and history.We also look at powerful examples—from Jesus to the early church, including the apostle James, who was known for his “camel knees” because of his deep, consistent life of prayer.What does it look like to truly make prayer first again? And how should we come before God—with reverence, humility, and expectation?If you’ve felt the need to go deeper in your prayer life, this episode will stir your heart and call you back to what matters most. God moves through those who seek Him. The question is—will we?-------America Pray Now publishes a magazine on prayer that is free of charge and can be delivered directly to your home.

Pastor Bob Fox has watched the prayer culture of evangelical churches shift dramatically over the last twenty-five years, and he is not quiet about what that shift has cost. This is a serious, grounded call to pastors and congregations to recover what was lost and restore it for a city under pressure. America Pray Now Assistant Director Ken Miller interviews Pastor Fox in a conversation that calls all believers back to a life of prayer.-------America Pray Now publishes a magazine on prayer that is free of charge and can be delivered directly to your home.

To Pastor Bob Fox, it is a place of foundational spiritual significance for the entire nation, and what happens there matters far beyond its borders.That conviction drives this episode of the Virginia Pray Now monthly call, hosted by Ken Miller of America Pray Now. Pastor Fox, who has served in pastoral ministry in the Hampton Roads area for thirty-five years, joins the call to share his burden for Virginia Beach and to make a case that the church in that city, and perhaps across the country, has quietly retreated from one of its most essential callings: corporate, focused, expectant prayer.The historical foundation Pastor Fox returns to is the 1607 landing at Cape Henry, where the first English settlers knelt and dedicated the land to Jesus Christ before they did anything else. Fox sees this act as more than a historical footnote. He believes it established a spiritual root for the nation, and that the health or brokenness of this region flows outward into the rest of America. This is not background information to him. It is the reason Virginia Beach carries unusual weight in the spiritual geography of the country, and the reason its current struggles demand serious attention from the church.Those struggles have become visible in disturbing ways. Over consecutive weekends, the Virginia Beach oceanfront saw multiple-victim shootings that shocked the city and led officials to impose curfews that are essentially unprecedented for a place that has long prided itself on being one of the safest large cities in the nation. The tourism industry, central to the city's economy, took an immediate hit. But Pastor Fox is less concerned with the economic impact than with what these events reveal. He describes the violence and the depression gripping young people as a canary in the coal mine, a signal that something is deeply wrong beneath the surface of community life. His point is not to catastrophize, but to name the moment clearly: the city is hurting, and the church needs to move toward that hurt rather than away from it.At the center of his concern is what he sees as the slow erosion of corporate prayer and community engagement within evangelical churches. He traces this shift across roughly twenty-five years. A generation ago, weekly prayer meetings and active evangelism teams were standard features of church life. Today, those practices have largely disappeared. Churches, in his assessment, have become proficient at serving their own members while losing their outward orientation toward the community. The result is a spiritual vacuum. The church has stepped back from standing in the gap for the vulnerable and the lost, and that withdrawal has consequences.Pastor Fox is careful not to offer despair as a conclusion. Instead, he points toward specific, actionable responses. The first is directed at civil leadership. He believes Mayor Bobby Dyer of Virginia Beach has a unique opportunity and responsibility to call the city to a day of prayer and fasting. Fox cites historical precedents with striking specificity: Abraham Lincoln's call to prayer during the Civil War, King George's call for national prayer before the Dunkirk evacuation, and Governor Pillsbury of Minnesota, who faced a devastating locust plague in the 1870s and declared a day of prayer after all other remedies had failed. In each case, according to Fox, the response from God was measurable and swift. His argument is that a mayor carries a level of credibility and reach that can mobilize diverse houses of worship in ways that individual pastors cannot. When a civic leader stands up and calls people to pray, something shifts.But the second, and ultimately more foundational, response must come from pastors themselves. Fox is direct: if the pastor does not model and lead corporate prayer, the congregation will not follow. He challenges church leaders to move away from broad, unfocused prayer requests and toward specific, sustained intercession on defined topics over a period of months. This approach, he argues, allows people to see that their prayers are actually producing results, which builds faith and increases participation. He also presses the issue of repentance, not only personal repentance, but what he calls foundational repentance for the ancestral sins connected to the Jamestown colony, including the early exploitation of indigenous people and the origins of the slave trade in America. He frames the confession of these sins as a biblical act, necessary before God can fully heal the land.The call closes with an extended time of intercession led by Ken Miller, Pastor Fox, and America Pray Now Director Hanna Alway. Their prayers are specific: wisdom for city officials, judges, and law enforcement; protection over the young people of Virginia Beach; a fresh move of the Spirit across the region. They also address a redistricting proposal on the upcoming ballot, urging listeners to engage with it as a matter of justice and righteous representation.The episode ends with a thirty-day prayer commitment focused on Virginia Beach, rooted in the belief that what God does there does not stay there. It ripples outward. The church's job is not to wait for conditions to improve. It is to pray, repent, engage, and trust that God responds when His people ask with faith and specificity.

Have you been concerned about the disunity in our government today? If so, this episode will take you back to a moment in American history when things looked just as divided—and just as uncertain.In 1787, the Constitutional Convention was on the verge of collapse. The states were fractured, tensions were high, and the future of the nation hung in the balance. Then, an unexpected voice rose—Benjamin Franklin, who reminded the delegates of something they had neglected: prayer.What followed shifted the atmosphere and helped change the course of history.Listen as America Pray Now partner, Lise Pampaloni, shares this powerful and often overlooked moment—and why its message still matters for our nation today.-------America Pray Now publishes a magazine on prayer that is free of charge and can be delivered directly to your home.

Email us at [email protected] are moments in the life of a nation when the ground beneath it shifts and the outcome cannot be predicted. The summer of 1787 was one of those moments. The men gathered in Philadelphia to address the failures of the Articles of Confederation arrived with intelligence, ambition, and competing interests, and by June they were deadlocked. The young United States, still fragile after the Revolution, was operating under a system of government that could not tax, could not settle trade disputes between states, and could not hold the Union together by its own weight. The fear among many was real: without a fundamental change, the republic would not survive.Into that crisis came a gathering of some of the most consequential figures in American history. George Washington, James Madison, Alexander Hamilton, and dozens of other delegates arrived in Philadelphia with the intention of revising what existed. They quickly understood that revision was not enough. What was needed was something entirely new. But the task of designing a government that could satisfy large states and small states, commercial interests and agrarian ones, proved far more difficult than many had anticipated. By the middle of the summer, the convention had stalled. Delegates were threatening to walk out. The effort appeared to be collapsing under the weight of its own divisions.It was at that moment that Benjamin Franklin, eighty-one years old and the most senior figure in the room, rose to speak. He did not do so often. But when he did, the room listened. What Franklin offered that day was not a new political proposal or a revised framework for representation. He offered something far more disarming: humility. He reminded the delegates that in the earliest and most dangerous days of the Revolution, they had prayed. They had asked God for help when the odds were against them. And they had seen that help come. Now, in a room full of educated and accomplished men, they had stopped asking. Franklin stated plainly that he had lived long enough to accumulate one conviction above almost all others: God governs in the affairs of men. He pressed the point with an illustration drawn from Scripture, asking whether an empire could rise without divine aid if even a sparrow does not fall outside of God's notice. His conclusion was direct. The delegates were, in his words, groping in the dark, because they had neglected to seek the light of heaven.Franklin moved that the convention begin each session with prayer. What followed is one of the more honest and instructive footnotes of American history. According to James Madison's own records, the motion was never formally adopted. Practical objections were raised: there was no money to pay a clergyman, and some delegates were reluctant to introduce formal religious observance into the proceedings. The motion did not pass. It was not even voted on.And yet something changed. Historians who have examined this period consistently note that the atmosphere of the convention shifted in the days following Franklin's speech. The tone softened. The stalemate began to break. Within weeks, the delegates found their way to what became known as the Great Compromise, the agreement that established a two-house legislature with proportional representation in the House and equal representation in the Senate. It resolved the central conflict that had paralyzed the convention. Four months after the proceedings began, the United States Constitution was signed on September 17, 1787, and a document was produced that has now endured for nearly two and a half centuries.The founding generation held a wide range of theological views, but many shared a common framework: the belief in Providence, the conviction that God superintends human history. Franklin, whatever his personal theology, spoke the language of that conviction. His argument was not merely religious sentiment. It was a practical observation drawn from experience: that human wisdom, however considerable, is not sufficient for the work of building a nation. This is the same truth recorded in Psalm 127, which states that unless the Lord builds the house, the labor of those who build it is in vain. It is echoed in the biblical invitation to ask God for wisdom and to trust him rather than leaning entirely on human understanding.The weight of this history does not stay in the eighteenth century. The episode connects the story of 1787 directly to the present condition of the United States, which faces divisions that carry a recognizable echo. The political and cultural fractures of today are not identical to those of the Constitutional Convention, but the underlying dynamic is familiar: a nation straining under the pressure of its own disagreements, searching for a way forward that human strategy alone cannot fully provide.Against that backdrop, something is already happening. In South Carolina, a statewide evangelistic gathering called the Charleston Crusade is bringing together churches and believers from more than twenty-five cities. In an unusual step, the state legislature formally recognized the event and issued an invitation for citizens to voluntarily rededicate themselves to God through prayer and moral renewal. This is not a government mandate. It is an invitation. And people are responding. Repentance is occurring. Baptisms are taking place. Communities are humbling themselves together.The parallel is intentional and sober. What Benjamin Franklin called the convention toward in 1787 is what this moment calls the American church toward now. Not the anger of political combat, but the posture of prayer. Not confidence in human frameworks, but dependence on the God who, as Franklin put it, governs in the affairs of men. The same God who brought fractured and divided men in Philadelphia to a place of unity sufficient to produce the Constitution is described here as still present, still listening, and still able to move across a nation willing to ask.What is built to last has never been built by human effort alone. That was true in 1787. It remains true today.

What does it really mean to pour out your heart before the Lord? This episode traces that question through Scripture, from Hannah’s cry to Hezekiah spreading his burden before God, and shows that real prayer is not built on perfect wording but on sincerity before God’s face.

What if the greatest barrier to an awakening is not outside the church, but within it? In Ezekiel’s vision, those marked by God and sparred from judgment were those who sighed and cried over the sin in His Sanctuary. In this episode, America Pray Now Director, Hanna Alway, calls believers to honest examination, repentance, and a deeper kind of intercession—one that stands in the gap, grieving over the sin within the Church, preparing the way for His presence to return.----------America Pray Now publishes a magazine on prayer that is free of charge and can be delivered directly to your home.

America’s greatest danger may not be what is happening around us, but what has been allowed within. Drawing from the warnings of Ezekiel and the testimony of past revivals, this episode explores the spiritual breaches caused by compromise, idolatry, and hidden sin within the church.In ancient cities, a single gap in the wall left everything vulnerable to the enemy. In the same way, tolerated sin and spiritual indifference have created unseen openings in the body of Christ today—often without grief or resistance.As America approaches its 250th anniversary, America Pray Now Director, Hanna Alway, calls believers to examine their own hearts and to take their place as intercessors—those who sigh and cry over the condition of the church and the nation, standing in the gap for repentance, mercy, and restoration.Will we recognize the breach… and respond?-------------America Pray Now publishes a magazine on prayer that is free of charge and can be delivered directly to your home.
