Consulting Ministry

The Church Prayer Leaders Network offers various levels of consulting for elder teams, prayer ministry teams and pastors who desire to see their church become a strong praying church.

In this ministry, depending on which package a church signs up for, our consultant will work with your prayer and leadership team to develop either the best starting points to develop prayer in your church, or help you develop a 2-3 year prayer growth strategy. But it is not a cookie-cutter plan that you get. Instead, the plan is based on the DNA of your church, and the mission and vision of the church.

 

Who Are We? And What Is Our Experience?

 

The Church Prayer Leaders Network and its president, Jonathan Graf, have been ministering with churches, pastors and prayer leaders, for more than 25 years. We know that Satan wants to do everything he can to thwart churches from becoming strong praying forces in their communities. We understand the ins and outs, the difficulties and road blocks to growing prayer in a local church.

Jon and the CPLN have facilitated prayer weekends and leadership training in hundreds of churches across the Unted States and Canada, and in the Middle East and South America as well.

Besides ministering in churches, CPLN has developed and published more than 70 books on prayer, many of which are specifically focused on developing prayer within a local church.

Our Power Series: Forgotten Power: A Simple Theology for a Praying Church by Dave Butts and Restored Power: Becoming a Praying Church One Tweak at a Time by Jonathan Graf have convicted, enlightened and equipped church elder and leadership boards as the series both casts a vision for why a church needs to care about prayer, and shares how to get your people praying.

When a church hires Jon Graf and CPLN to help them develop strategies and a plan to grow prayer in their congregation, they get all this experience and more. Jon has served as a local church prayer leader in a Colorado Springs church plant, was the prayer director for The Christian and Missionary Alliance denomination. In his current church, Jon was the Interim Teaching Pastor for a year, and is currently an elder and the prayer ministry director. As a result of his experience, he understands both sides of trying to grow prayer—the difficulties and the successes.
