PrayerU FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

How will PrayerU benefit my church?
What church or ministry are you affiliated with?
PrayerU is a ministry of Harvest Prayer Ministries. Click here for more information about HPM. 
What is your statement of faith?
Our beliefs are aligned with the Lausanne Covenant on world evangelization as developed at the Billy Graham sponsored conference on world evangelism. Lauzanne, Switzerland, 1974. https://www.lausanne.org/content/covenant/lausanne-covenant#cov
How much is a PrayerU membership?

The cost is $120 annually for a church unlimited access to all courses. This averages only $10/monthly. The courses are all available on demand as often as you wish while you have a subscription. Any books required for the courses are an additional cost. Click here to sign up! 

Can an individual have a membership?

Yes! An individual membership is available for only $29 per year. Unlike a church membership, which includes the ability to provide membership access to everyone who attends that church, the individual membership provides access to one family household.

Are there any free courses?
YES! We currently have a 2-lesson free course called Watchmen on the Wall. Please check it out here.  Invite others you know to take the course with you! You may share this course freely! Additional free courses will be added along the way!
Do we need to take the courses in the order they are listed?

Not necessarily; however, we do strongly recommend that with the exception of the free course: Watchmen on the Wall, churches/small groups begin with the course on Prayer as Intimacy with God. Growing a love relationship with God is the basic foundation of prayer, and crucial for understanding prayer as the key to Kingdom living.

How long are the courses?
With the exception of the free course, Watchmen on the Wall, which is a short course of 2 Lessons, each course is designed to last for 5-8 weeks, depending upon the topic. There is flexibility for leaders to spend more than one week on a lesson if needed.
How much time should we allow for each lesson?

This is flexible depending upon your time constraints; however, we strongly recommend a minimum of one hour so that you have plenty of time for discussion and spending time in prayer. If you have to choose between cutting discussion questions or cutting prayer – please cut back on the discussion. Learning about prayer is good…but praying accomplishes the purposes of God as people apply the principles of prayer they are learning.

What components are in each Lesson?
Every lesson includes the following components: a short video teaching, discussion questions, a 2-minute wrap up video, and a significant prayer time. Additional components: Next Steps to help you practice what you have learned through the week and Supplemental Materials to help you dig deeper into the topic.
Can I do this by myself?
Although these courses are designed for small groups/churches, we recognize that some people have schedules that may not allow this. If your church has a subscription to PrayerU, individuals can still ask for access to study independently and on their own schedule. If your church does not have a subscription, you may still purchase a subscription on your own; however, the price is the same.
Will there be anything for my family?
Yes, we will have courses that will be both family-friendly and intergenerational.
Will other courses be added in the future?
Yes! Our goal is to add 3-4 new courses annually.
Are there additional costs involved in PrayerU?

All courses are included in the annual subscription with the exception of any books that are required. Here are two other optional opportunities that involve additional cost:

  1. We offer an optional one-hour Zoom consultation with the instructor(s) for each course, if desired. Click here for more information and cost.
  2. We also offer a live Zoom course called Roadmap to a Praying Church that is structured individually for each church/leadership group. It is extensive and intensive, but is designed to help churches move towards becoming houses of prayer for all nations (praying churches). Click here for more information and cost.
Will the membership be renewed automatically or will I need to renew it each year?

Renewal Policy: PrayerU memberships renew automatically every year. You will receive an email two weeks prior to your renewal as a reminder. You do not need to do anything unless you need to change your information or cancel your membership.
