Connecting with God can be simple...
Remember all those things you learned about prayer at church: bow your head, close your eyes, and use acronomyms to help make sure you remember all the parts?
You know what? It doesn't work.
As a matter of fact, prayer doesn't work.
God works.
Prayer is just a term for conversing with our creator.
Unfortunately, well meaning religious people have added so many "conditions" to prayer that most of us are afraid we don't do it right. We blame ourselves when we feel like our prayers go unanswered. We didn't pray hard enough, long enough, or in the right way.
But what if connecting with God is more like having an intimate conversation with your spouse, a really bad fight with your best friend, or a teaching moment with your child?
We can all do that, right?
How would your prayer conversation change if it were about the who and not the how?
That's what we hope you'll discover by reading our books. The first book Six Prayers God Always Answers examines the different ways we talk to God. The follow-on book to be released next year, Nine Ways God Always Speaks, looks at the surprising ways we can hear from him.
Whether you're talking or listening, prayer doesn't have to involve formulas, processes, or even positions. Connecting with God can be simple and we hope to show you how.

Do You Have a Story to Share?
Mark and Jennifer are currently working on their next book, Nine Ways God Always Speaks (Tyndale March 2009), as well as several other projects and they'd like to hear from you!
If you have a story about prayer or God working in your life, send it to them. They'll share the best stories on this website, their blog, or perhaps even use it in their next book. While there is no payment, it's a great opportunity to share what God is doing in your life with others who will be encouraged by it!
