Prayer Jounery / Prayer Commandos
This is a short lesson that sends adult leaders and youth out into the community to pray on site wherever the feel it is pertinent, and in doing so, try out some different forms of prayer and learn how prayer can change the pray-er and the world. Also, it will build awareness of the needs, and those attempting to serve the needs, of the community.
A Study Guide for Creating TV/Movie-Bible Study Guides/ Talking To God - A Futurama Bible Study
Being a big fan of a variety of TV programs, but having no means to discuss them in a Biblical/Theological way I developed this guide to aid in creating your own group Bible studies for whatever programming you find relevant. Included is an example I created using the process.
Prayer Room of Unheard Voices
This includes instruction for setting up a prayer room with six stations. Each station involves an action for participants to do, a Bible verse to reflect on, and a quote from people whose voices are not always heard. Quotes included a homosexual, women who survived Rwanda Holocaust, Native American, and Transgender pastor.
I created this for an adult retreat featuring Brennan Manning. I received great feedback and people appreciated not only having a Bible Verse but another reflection to ponder.
Confirmation Retreat - Session on Temptation and Evil
A session from a junior high Confirmation Retreat on the Lord's Prayer. Focuses on the sixth and seventh petitions, "Save us from the time of trial, but deliver us from evil," and hopes to help teens see and understand connections between their own lives, the Gospel stories, and prayer.

Use this guide to help you wait, watch, wonder, and wake up in the midst of the busy-ness. Four styles of contemplative prayer are presented in this simple outline.
