Here’s how to find prayer gatherings in Chattanooga, some that we recommend and what to expect when you attend one. What Is a Prayer Gathering?

These gatherings can include worship, Scripture reading, silence, intercession, and listening for God’s leading. Prayer gatherings can look different depending on the church or group, but at their core, they are centered on communicating with God and crying out for His heart for other people, cities, nations and the lost / unreached.  Why Does Prayer Matter?Prayer is a central part of the Christian life. It’s how we communicate with God, bring our needs before Him, and grow in relationship with Him.
