EP 49 Q&A with Christine Caine: How to Make Prayer Your First Response

Today, on the podcast, we kick off a mini-series of Q&A with Christine Caine, hosted by Equip & Empower team member, Mattie Meese. In this episode, Christine Caine shares how prayer is the foundation of her life and ministry. Listen in to find encouragement today if you’ve ever wrestled with how to pray or struggled with unanswered prayers.

SHOW NOTES:

First Response

For Christine and Nick, prayer has become a first response when navigating challenging situations in life, but it’s also their first response when things are going well. Prayer is not regulated only for times of crisis but also for times of praise.

“Open Mouth. Pray”

A Christian speaker from South Korea forever impacted Christine when she challenged an audience to not overcomplicate prayer. She said you simply need to open your mouth, then pray.

Dependency Upon God

Christine shares that she cannot provide the breakthroughs needed in her life and ministry. However, prayer invites God’s divine activity into our lives, expressing our utter dependence upon the Lord and our need for his intervention.
