So you'd love to pray more, buuuut... 


... the flippin' A/C on the Chevy broke down AGAIN.


So you gotta take that into the shop. 

And then...

Someone has to take out the dog. 

Clean the kitchen. 

Drive Lizzy to dance practice. 

Pick up James from school. 

Run to Target, and... oh shoot... you still have to drive to church to pick up those chairs for Saturday... uuggggghhhhhh...

And when you finally manage to carve out a 15-minute sliver of your day to collapse into your comfy chair and talk to God... 

... either your head is spinning with everything you have to do later in the day and so you can barely focus on praying
...

... or else you are so exhausted
 that after five minutes you are conked out and zzzzzz-ing and next thing you know your spouse is tapping you on the shoulder and telling you (with just a bit of annoyance) "honey it's midnight why aren't you in bed". 


So what does someone with a life like yours... and a desire to pray more... do?


Wake up an hour earlier and guzzle three cups of coffee? 

Buy (another) prayer journal or app you're not gonna use?

Change nothing and keep feeling like a "terrible Christian" because you barely pray?

Take A Deeeep Breath. And Relax. Because Starting Now, I Am Going To Show You Another Way...

Here’s the real problem: 


God never intended for you to have a prayer life. 


“Prayer lives”... are a human invention. 

A human attempt to put God in a box. 

To confine him. 

To tame him. 

To make him more convenient. 

To separate heaven from earth. 

God’s Life from our life. 

Here’s what I mean…

… you and I have been taught to think of our lives, as being separated into distinct compartments: we have our “work life” and “family life” and “church life” and “prayer life” — and ne’er the four shall meet.


And the problem this creates is?

Even if you manage to pray for 20 minutes in the morning...


... and even if you feel waves of peace and a sense of God's nearness rolling through you as you pray... 

... once it's over, it's over. 


The alarm goes off, you jump from your chair, you grab your lunch, you stumble out the door, you put the car in reverse, you zoom down the street... 

... and by the time you are on the freeway it feels like you are in another world.

Gone are the green pastures and quiet waters that filled your mind 20 minutes ago. 

And in their place, is a jumbled list of phone calls to make and emails to send and fires to put out, all drenched in a thick coat of anxiety.

You pressed 'pause' on your prayer life; 

You pressed 'play' on your real life. 


But what if… 


… you opened a door, stepped through, and found yourself inside a life where you were praying not just 15 minutes per day… but
literally all the time?
 As you...

  • Drove to work
  • Shopped at Walmart
  • Responded to emails
  • Took the kids to soccer
  • Did your taxes
  • Tossed the Caesar salad
  • Walked the dog
  • Watched the kids splash around in the pool
  • Hosted friends on the weekend

… what if you were, at every minute of every day, praying? 

… always listening to God? 

... always conscious of his presence with you?

… always asking him for help with the task at hand?

... always interceding for the people you walked by?

... always quietly laughing with him, and rejoicing, and voicing your concerns to him? 

... always feeling his peace and power and confidence and joy rolling through you? 

At that point we are no longer talking about a “prayer life”; 

But a praying life.

Practical Strategies For Migrating From A Prayer Life” To A Praying Life”

So how do you do it?

How do you make the move from "prayer life" to "praying life"?


That is a question I've been obsessed with for a good bit now.

And speaking of me...

... I should probably introduce myself. 

I'm Sam. 

It's nice to meet you. 


And here are four relevant things you should know about me:

  1. I am in the middle of an experiment where I am learning how to pray during (literally) every minute of every day

  2. I will not stop until I am praying (literally) every minute

  3. I am a writer by trade

  4. I write and send an email every Monday through Friday sharing stories from my “experiment in prayer” and breaking down the lessons I am learning… about how any Christian can learn to live a life of (literally) continuous prayer… at a very practical, granular level. You can try two weeks of these emails for $1 on this page. And I am confident that if you put these lessons into practice? It is not just possible, but inevitable that you will eventually find yourself within an always-praying life

I realize “inevitable” is a strong word; 

Why am I so sure these emails will actually help you move from a

  • Frantic
  • Stuffy
  • Confined
  • Small
  • Struggling
  • Anxious
  • Guilty
  • Cut-off-from-your-day-to-day-reality “Prayer life”... 

To a 

  • Joyous
  • Rested
  • Constant
  • Energizing
  • Larger-than-yourself
  • Jesus-filled
  • Spirit-led
  • Integrated-with-everything-you-do “Praying Life”

?

Why I'm Sure That You (Yes, *You*) Can Actually Learn To Pray Continuously

Reason #1 is, it is God’s will that you learn to pray continuously. How do I know this? Because Paul says so in 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18:

“Rejoice always; pray without ceasing; in everything give thanks; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.” 

Most Christians miss that second underlined part. They are familiar with the first part where Paul says to “pray without ceasing”; but they miss the part where Paul flat out says “this is God’s will for you” — i.e. God wants you, me, and every Christian who ever lived to step into a life where we never stop praying. 

And if God wants it? You can be sure that He’s going make it happen assuming you ask him for help, go for it, and persist in going for it. 

At that point it’s no longer a question of whether, but when. 

Reason #2 is, these practical strategies I share in my emails are working for me. I am a ways from honestly being able to say that I am praying “every minute of my life” — but I have come very far, in the one short year I have been actively trying this. Every month the gaps between my praying get smaller and smaller. Every month I have been able to look back and say “God has brought me closer to my goal of every-minute-every-day prayer”. And it is becoming quite clear to me that if I simply persist in this experiment — I am going to arrive at my goal. At this point I have no doubt about it. 

Reason #3 is, these practical strategies in my emails are working for normal Christians from all walks of life.

I’ve written and sent over 200 emails packed with lessons so far… and I’ve sprinkled a few testimonies throughout this page of what has happened, in the lives of those who have tried what I taught in those emails. 

Here are a few more “experiences” of my emails:

Five More Reasons To Try My Emails For A Dollar (aka FREE Stuff!!!):


Bonus #1: How To Pray Without Ceasing In 1 Page ($5 value)


This is the most concise, distilled version of everything I teach... that I have ever made and likely ever will make. 

It is 100% protein, 0% fat. 

In it I teach 8 steps which, if you actually put them into practice, I am confident you will eventually begin to (literally) pray without ceasing. This is not the only path to unceasing prayer - but it is a path that works.


Bonus #2: How To Pray Without Ceasing - A Manual ($19 value)


I wrote this 24-page guide for Christians who feel stuck in their prayer lives, and guilty about how little they pray... to help them find a path that actually leads you to pray more and more.

Most Christians try to guilt and shame themselves into praying more: "I SHOULD pray more!" - "I'm such a bad Christian because of how little I pray!" - but this never actually helps them pray more. 

This Manual teaches another way. The way of achieving results through the Spirit, and not the Flesh. 


Bonus #3: How To Hear God ($19 value)


How can you tell what God is saying to you? 

What do you do, if you have never "heard God speak to you" before? 

What practical steps can you take, to become better at discerning God's voice in your life? 

These questions and others are what I tackle in this 5-part guide, How To Hear God. If you long to have a more conversational relationship with God, but aren't sure how to get there... I think you'll love this guide.


Bonus #4: The Praying Army ($10 value)


Some of my subscribers and I are trying a very interesting experiment: we are building a "praying army". 

And this bonus download is a collection of emails I wrote which cast the original vision for this experiment.  

What do I mean by a "Praying Army"? You'll see when you read these emails. Also: our experiment in putting these ideas into practice has turned into the adventure of a lifetime. God is showing up in powerful ways. And while our initial group is currently "closed" to new members... we will likely open again soon for Round 2 of this "Praying Army" experiment. You'll be the first to hear about it if you're a PrayMore subscriber.
