A key to cultivating a culture of prayer is to
promote multiple and varied models and opportunities for prayer.
Why “multiple and varied?”
...Multiple and varied because not everyone can
relate to the same models.
...Multiple and varied because not everyone’s
schedule can accommodate the same opportunities.
...Multiple and varied because the range of prayer
needs is so broad and diverse, requiring a number of different
approaches. (J. Randolph Turpin)
