In this episode, Brian and Cory explore the significance of shift number one in moving toward a disciple-making culture: extraordinary prayer. We discuss the importance of frequency, focus, and fervor in prayer and how these elements can transform ordinary prayer into extraordinary experiences. We talk about a few of the tools that have helped us and consider some of the barriers that work against us as we lean into extraordinary prayer.

In this episode, Cory Ozbun and Upashaker Gurung explore the significance of extraordinary prayer and fasting in both personal and communal contexts. Upas shares his inspiring journey from Nepal to Kansas City, highlighting the transformative power of prayer in his life and community. Cory and Upas emphasize the need for desperation in prayer, the impact of unified prayer efforts, and the importance of maintaining a deep dependence on God in ministry. We believe prayer precedes movements, and if we want to see movement, we must embrace a lifestyle of prayer and seek unity in our efforts to spread the gospel.
