Do you think God will use you to inspire others? Keeping prayer at the forefront of your relationship with God is a daily discipline. When Sandi's prayer team leader in Massachusetts asked her Southern friend and team member to come out of the church closet and pray somewhere she might be seen, Sandi felt like she needed help. Though she had led prayer groups and teams across the country for years, she still preferred private prayer, to not be seen. God took her a step further when her women's ministry director asked her to teach prayer. Raw and Reverent birthed from that request. Following Jesus' practice of prayer, may you experience afresh God's power, presence, and relationship from this amazing discipline of communication with our awe-inspiring God. About the Author: Passionate about following God from a very young age, Sandi never saw herself as a Christian author and speaker. In 2006, she began speaking about Christian living and has spent many years writing and teaching Bible studies. Her most recent endeavor, Raw and Reverent, follows Jesus' example of prayer in Luke. She knows God is still in the life-transforming business and believes His Word can be the tool to help us live out who He created each of us to be. She and her husband live in Arizona with their two teenagers.
