3. Practice #3: Prayer

Author: QB Kids and Families May 4, 2025 Duration: 14:27

In episode 3, we're focusing on Practice #3: Prayer.
What does it mean to talk to God anytime, anywhere — and actually hear Him speak?


In this episode, we’re diving into the practice of prayer — not just as a religious ritual, but as a real, ongoing conversation with God. The early church devoted themselves to prayer, and we’re invited to do the same. Whether it’s out loud, in your thoughts, with others, or all by yourself — God is always listening.


We’ll talk about:

  • What Jesus taught about prayer (spoiler: no fancy words required!)
  • How we can pray honestly and boldly, just like Jesus and the early believers
  • Real-life examples of kids praying — and seeing God answer in different ways
  • Practical ways your family can build a prayer rhythm into your everyday life


Let’s discover how prayer connects us deeply with God and invites His presence into everything we do!

Families Following Jesus is a podcast from QB Kids and Families that recognises the hectic rhythm of family life in Australia. Instead of adding another lengthy commitment, it offers short, focused conversations designed to fit into the school run, the commute, or those moments before practice. The first season, titled Fan the Flame, takes a practical look at the book of Acts. It connects directly with the Queensland Baptists devotional, breaking down seven core practices that defined the early Christian community. Each episode explores one of these historical rhythms, translating ancient wisdom into relatable ideas for modern households. You'll hear straightforward discussions about integrating faith into daily routines, not as another task, but as a natural part of your family's story. This isn't about theoretical theology; it's about tangible steps for walking out your beliefs together, right where you are. Tune in for a dose of grounded encouragement that meets you in the busyness.
