What is Made to Pray Podcast?

Our co-hosts, Karrilee & Lori, believe that all of us are made to pray! They are both passionate about prayer and believe it is a lifestyle & it should be our first response, not our last resort! In this podcast, they will talk about prayer, and then they'll actually pray! Sometimes it will be just the two of them, but sometimes they will invite a special guest to the podcast to share a teaching or testimony as well as to join in with them in prayer! So whether you are an intercessor and are passionate about prayer already - or just curious about what prayer looks and sounds like and how to start a conversation with God... we invite you to come along with us on this journey of prayer! Listen, Lean In, and Pray Along!
