Creative Prayer
Topic outline
-
This module is for anyone wanting to find out more about this reflective form of prayer and how it can be adapted to the area of ministry you serve in. We offer a comprehensive overview of what creative prayer is and how it can be used in ministry settings to encourage alternative, reflective prayer. This will provide you with an opportunity to use some suggested prayer ideas in your context and reflect on the learning experience. This will therefore help you develop in understanding alternative ways to pray and how these can be adapted to help others engage in a non-traditional way of reflecting, refreshing, responding and receiving from God, through creative prayer.
Desired Learning Outcomes:
- Understand what 'creative' prayer means
- Develop knowledge of how to use creative prayer and how it can be adapted to be relevant in various ministry settings
- Gain experience in setting up prayer stations or leading creative prayer responses within a church or group ministry prayer
- Develop learning on creative prayer through reflecting on the practical application of creative prayer ideas in a ministry context
