Praying Like Monks, Living Like Fools Bible Study Guide plus Streaming Video: A Bible Study on Learning to Pray Like Jesus

by Tyler Staton

Prayer is far more powerful than most of us realize or experience.

Join pastor and author Tyler Staton in this five-session video Bible study (video streaming included) as he delves deeply into what prayer is and how to experience prayer as Jesus promised it.

Prayer is an incredible gift, and it has incredible power. But for most of us, there's an equally incredible gap between our own experiences of prayer and Jesus' promises about it. Why is that? What are our roadblocks in praying as Jesus did? How can we discover the power of prayer in our own lives?

In this Bible study, you'll embark on a journey that will lead you from receiving Christ's intercession to interceding with Christ. Staton will unpack the Lord's Prayer into four core adoration, confession, petition, and intercession. But it all starts with the profound realization that Jesus is interceding for us, by name, right now.

This bible study was fantastic!! The questions that Tyler asked of the group brought about real and honest answers which lead to amazing discussion. My favorite thing is that at the end, there was always a practical step of prayer that left us possibly feeling uncomfortable but in the best way!! Praying aloud for different people and circumstances alongside the community that did this study was so life giving. I looked forward to every Sunday when we would meet. I also loved the weekly readings and questions we had to personally do. Would totally recommend!

This was incredible. I borrowed it on audiobook from Libby and didn’t realize it was the study guide & not the book itself! I loved it so much I’ll be buying the book. Can’t wait to read it with my pen on hand. 🖊️

I think if I’d done this study without reading the book it would have been better.
