Overview My journey with the practice of prayer How to use the PZW structure Practicing PZW exercises Where do you go from here Jump-start your heart for the New Year!

My journey with prayer Prayer is hard to do Difficult to stay motivated and focused Life is too busy for a regular prayer time Dare we say -prayer is “boring” We think “We have to have everything ‘just right’ in order to pray.” Richard Foster, Prayer: Finding the heart’s true home.

The beginning of the journey: In the classroom Prayer: from head to heart from thoughts to talk a spiritual heart massage as God’s perspective

The journey after the classroom The problem: How to continue a consistent practice of transformative personal prayer in the midst of life. The solution: Combining physical exercise and prayer: Achievable Practical Motivational Experience the “zone”

A link between the two disciplines of prayer and exercise - the heart Cardiovascular exercise is concerned with the physical heart. Prayer is concerned with the spiritual heart. Prayer is not a matter of changing things externally, but one of the working miracles in a person’s inner nature. Oswald Chambers, My Utmost for his Highest.

PRAYER ZONE WORKOUT for the Heart The purpose of personal prayer in a Prayer Zone Workout is to improve the fitness of your spiritual heart while you improve the fitness of your physical heart through cardiovascular (aerobic) exercise.

The Prayer Zone Workout Structure

The features of a Prayer Zone Workout 5 minute segments include: A word from scripture Meditation The truth being meditated upon passes from the mouth into the mind and down into the heart… Richard Foster, Prayer Finding the Heart’s True Home.
