One Thing

One Thing

‘One Thing’ is a three part teaching series on prayer. 

Welcome to the ‘One Thing’ Prayer School, a 3 part teaching series on prayer. We’d be delighted for you to join us on this journey of learning more about prayer, where we reflect on how prayer shapes our own lives, and how it impacts our churches and communities. As you use this material, either individually or as part of a small group, our prayer is that you will be encouraged and informed, challenged and inspired.

In our first series, ‘One Thing for Us’, we explore how we can put prayer at the centre of everything: how we can hear God’s voice, build prayer rhythms and navigate the obstacles that get in the way of prayer in our everyday lives. 

In our second series, ‘One Thing for the Church’, we consider how we can grow in prayer together as communities of faith, putting that ultimate conversation with God himself right at the heart of our church life together.

In the third and final series, ‘One thing for the world’, we explore the connection between prayer and mission. How can we develop prayer strategies that help us see more people come to faith in Jesus, and how can we connect prayer into politics and social justice?

Each series of the course consists of six or seven recorded sessions, on a particular theme interspersed with opportunities for discussion and reflection. To get the best out of the ‘One Thing’ series, we recommend that you use the recorded sessions in conjunction with the Study Guide. 

Each session and study guide is free to view / download.
