Building a Thriving Culture of Citywide Prayer

My house shall be called a house of prayer for all peoples. — Isaiah 56:7

Extraordinary Prayer

Scripture and history attest that extraordinary prayer is the engine of spiritual awakening. Every great move of God has always been preceded by movements of extraordinary prayer.

Agreement in prayer represents the greatest opportunity to unite our cities across divisive boundaries. Through these ongoing rhythms of prayer we are building a thriving culture of extraordinary prayer across Arkansas until we become a true reflection of heaven on earth.

Over the last 20 years the CityChurch Network has founded all of its work on prayer through the annual Arkansas Prayer Summit, National Day of Prayer, One Voice Citywide Prayer events, Leader Prayer Groups, Monthly Prayer Guides, and Arkansas Prays.

Arkansas Prays

Arkansas Prays is a city and state prayer movement to strengthen the church and the connections between churches in Arkansas with this simple, church-based model for unceasing prayer. Local churches are working together across denominations, ethnicities, generations, and locations to collectively cover Arkansas in 24/7 prayer. The CityChurch Network is joining with networks in many other states who are raising up 40,000 churches to cover America in 24/7 prayer with America Prays.

One Voice

One Voice Citywide Prayer events are organized regularly to gather every church in the city for an evening of extraordinary prayer. Hosted by different churches each time, One Voice is lead by a diverse team of pastors and worship leaders brought together from several churches.

These events occur every year on the evenings of the National Day of Prayer (the first Thursday in May) and the Thursday before Thanksgiving. One Voice is always free and open to the public. Mark your calendar and join the movement by helping us spread the word!

Prayer Summit

As pastors and ministry leaders, we share a passion for the transformation of our communities. Our schedules are overbooked in pursuit of the impact that we all desire with few opportunities to seek the Lord in extended prayer. For more than 20 years, pastors and ministry leaders of all kinds attend the Arkansas Prayer Summit to get away and be saturated in Spirit-led, worship-fed, scripture-based prayer for revival in Arkansas. This is a powerful time of the presence of God, spiritual refreshment, and connection with other pastors and ministry leaders.

Join us for a day of seeking the Lord for revival in Arkansas. Space is limited, so sign up today.

A 2020 Review and a Look Ahead

When we were setting New Year’s resolutions in January, who could have imagined we would face a global pandemic, increasing racial and political division, rioting, and violence in the streets of many of our cities.

Mr. Spickles, a Divine Appointment, and Teaching Your Children to Pray

Our daughter turned 2 a few weeks ago. A friend posted about a book, Mr. Spickles Learns to Pray. My grandparents asked what they could get her for her birthday and I suggested this book. When she received, “Mr. Spickles Learns to Pray”, I realized the author was local and I friended her on a …
