Improve your prayer life

I’m running a Kindle deal on my book: LORD, IT’S BORING IN MY PRAYER CLOSET (How to Revitalize Your Prayer Life)!                          

It’s 1/2 price ($2.99) on Amazon.com from today, Sunday, August 18th, until next Saturday, August 24th.

I hear more and more Christians saying how difficult prayer has become and I know personally that is true! If your prayer life is stagnant–grab a friend and agree to pray together on a regular basis; start a small prayer group in you home once a week; or do a  group study together on prayer, using my book or another one on prayer.

I have a small group of ladies that I pray with every week and another once-a- month where husbands are included. Praying  together does so much to encourage me in my prayer life!

So grab your Kindle edition at 1/2 price, or a paperback copy is also available at Amazon. (I recommend the paperback copy for a group study.)

Lord, It’s Boring in My Prayer Closet online class

Posted on June 11, 2019 | Leave a comment

 Come join us as we learn, share & discuss together ways to improve our prayer lives!

I’ll be teaching an online 5-week class with BeADisciple.com beginning July 8th on the topic of PRAYER. It’s based on my book, LORD, ITS BORING IN MY PRAYER CLOSET (How to Revitalize Your Prayer Life)

“Go deeper in your prayer life in this 5-week course. Based on a book by the same title, this course is taught by the author Sandra Chambers. In her book, Sandra shares her own struggles and victories as she has sought to overcome boredom in prayer and answer the question: “If prayer is so important, why is it so hard?” During this five-week study, participants will examine their own prayer life and be challenged to see and experience prayer in some new ways. Emphasis is on putting into practice what you are learning about prayer.”

I Can’t Hear You, God—It’s Too Noisy!

Posted on June 13, 2016 | Leave a comment

The following is an excerpt from my book, Lord, It’s Boring in My Prayer Closet (How to Revitalize Your Prayer Life) which is on sale at Amazon.com this month (click on title for link). Proceeds from the sale for the month of June will go to Manna Ministries, a local food pantry ministry in Leland, NC.

Do You Have Trouble Hearing God’s Voice?

Prayer should be more than a one-way conversation, but if we’re honest, our prayer life is usually just that. We run through a list of our needs or the needs of others and rush off to our day. We find it difficult to wait on God in prayer and listen for Him to speak to us.

A recent article in Parade Magazine, “What Your Nose Knows” revealed some interesting facts about our five senses, in particular, our sense of hearing. According to the article, at birth our ears are pristine organs, capable of discerning among more than 300,000 sounds, but after years of exposure to loud noises, the hair cells on the cochlea, in the inner ear flatten, becoming less sensitive. This constant bath of noise affects everything from our concentration to our health.[i] Continue reading →

The “War Room”

Posted on August 28, 2015 | 1 comment

prayerA Call to Prayer

I was privileged to see the new faith-based film, The War Room, in a pre-lease showing last night. I encourage everyone to see this film. A little slow at first, it builds in interest and by the end you’re shouting, “Hallelujah.” It’s a powerful call to Christians to enter the “War Room” of our prayer closets to pray for the Church, our nation and the next generation.

As Christians, our true source of power does not rest in our political system or political leaders, nor in our economic power or influence, but in God alone. And our battle plan must come from Him if we are to take back the Church, our nation and the next generation. Continue reading →
