Praying Through

by John Kitchen

Finding Wholeness and Healing in the Prayers of David Betrayed? Humiliated? Lonely? Feeling spiritually dry? How do you pray when you’re deeply wounded? We often pray about our problems and for our needs, but far too often we don’t pray through―the deep, intimate kind of prayer that draws hope and healing from the very life of God.

About the author

John grew up on the plains of rural Iowa as part of a good, but unbelieving family. After he, his sister, and his father nearly died in an asphyxiation accident, his mother began seeking God. A few years later John's sister came to personal faith in Christ through the witness of friends. She in turn led John to faith in Christ while he was in junior high school. Later, as a young adult, John sensed God’s call to ministry and began training for His service.

John studied at Crown College (Saint Bonifacius, MN), earning a BA in Bible and Theology and then at Columbia Biblical Seminary (Columbia, SC), receiving the MDiv.

From 1987 to 2001 John served as the senior pastor of the Plymouth Alliance Church (Plymouth, Wisconsin). During that time John earned the DMin from Trinity Evangelical Divinity School.

From 2001 to 2020 he served as the senior pastor of the Stow Alliance Fellowship (Stow, Ohio).

Since 2020 John and his wife have served an international church in the Middle East.

By God's grace John has taught God’s Word beyond the local church, in countries around the world and in the United States in conferences, camps, seminars and on college campuses.
