Learning to pray like Jesus.
To start the new year, we're joining Foursquare churches around the world for 21 days of prayer and fasting, January 4–24, 2027. Come seek the Lord with us.
A new year, on our knees
For three weeks each January, Foursquare churches across the world set aside the first days of the year to pray and fast together. This year we're joining them, and we'd love for you to join us.
The theme is “Learning to pray like Jesus.” We'll look at how Jesus prayed, the prayer he taught his friends, and the way he still prays for us, and we'll ask him to teach us to pray like that too.
Simple, and for everyone
No experience needed. Whether prayer comes easily to you or feels brand new, there's room for you in these 21 days.
A little each day
Each day has a short Scripture, a devotional, and a few prayer points, enough to steady your day, not fill it. Foursquare provides a free guide, including a Family Moments guide for praying with kids.
Prayer & fasting
Fasting simply means setting something aside, a meal, a habit, a scroll, to make more room for God. It's an invitation, never a requirement. Start small, and there's a free fasting guide if you'd like help.
Together, from wherever you are
Pray along from home, on your own or with your family, knowing the whole Arise family and churches worldwide are praying too. Text Pastor Brian any time to share a request or ask a question, we're in this together.
