A Deeper Knowing of God

20–24 October 2025 (Mon–Fri)

For the Apostle Paul, a desire for a deeper knowledge of God and the conviction of its necessity flows through all of his words, actions and longings for others. Let’s journey together through his prayers to see what we can learn from him about the priority of
prayer, and the priorities in prayer for those who long to grow in closeness and fellowship with God.
