Each of us encounters daily distractions—some legitimate, some frivolous—that threaten to keep us from prayer. We know we should “pray without ceasing” (1 Thess. 5:17), but we often struggle to make that a reality. During this retreat, we’ll consider how to pray persistently in our noisy world. In each session, we’ll focus on a different challenge to the life of prayer, and we’ll seek to understand and apply Scripture to those common situations in order to grow as women who regularly seek God’s face.
