What Are the Pastors in American Churches Prioritizing?

In the practical stuff of everyday life, many of us live as functional atheists. In two thousand five barne group did a research study and they looked at pastoral priorities of churches in america. Prayer was number 12 out of 12 on that list. After good things like evangelism and out and preaching and teaching and sole care and good things, prayer was Number 12. Not much would change if we woke up to morrow and everything in the bible about prayer and the holy spirit was just gone, never, never, ever there.
