What is prayer?

Quick biblical direction: What is prayer? The Christian answer begins with God’s Word, not with the changing opinions of the culture. Finish The Race approaches this from a conservative, Reformed, Scripture-first worldview: God is sovereign, Christ is sufficient, sin is serious, grace is real, and obedience matters.

This entry is a starter answer for review. It should be expanded with full LSB Scripture text, related Finish The Race articles, podcast links, and any course resources that fit the topic. The goal is to give users practical discipleship, not just information.

A faithful response should include truth, grace, and intentionality: truth because Scripture is the final authority; grace because Christ deals patiently with His people; and intentionality because believers are called to walk in obedience rather than drift.
