Prayer is too often an untapped source of strength and

power, a reservoir of faith-growth that we often fail to

access. Connecting to God through prayer brings im-

measurable joy, godly wisdom, hope, peace and

strength. When you apply these six keys to your prayer

life, you will find that your prayers are more effective

and your relationship with God more fulfilling.

If you would like to order a copy of Dr. Cullinan’s latest

book, please fill out the form below and place in the of-

fering plate or give to Janice.
