Carla Pratt Keyes, Pastor of Ginter Park Presbyterian Church in Richmond, Virginia, takes a long and loving look at the practice of prayer as she reflects on the words of James 5:13-20, this Sunday’s epistle reading. How does prayer work? What does it do? How can I make it work for me? Keyes confesses her own inability to understand or control something as mysterious as prayer, but also admits there are times when it works, and even times when it works through, or because, of us: when we become the answer to someone else’s prayer. Push the play button and listen in on Carla’s thoughtful and moving journey through the wilderness of prayer.
