243 - BONUS - Devotions By Christian Outdoors - Hello God Its Me Again
How important is prayer? This is one of the questions we get a lot, and we hear a lot of folks talking about prayer. How do we pray? Is there a right way? Is it formal or casual?
To put it simply, prayer is our time to talk to God...in this time we need to know we have God's undivided attention and we need to use the time to thank him, ask for forgiveness, and to let him know our deepest desires and concerns.
I cannot remember where I heard it, but it stuck with me when a pastor preached on prayer and he suggested to do it like this; Thank you, Sorry, Please. We begin by thnaking God for all of our blessings, both big and small. Then we let Him know we are sorry for our failuers and sins, and lastly we ask Him for our hearts desires. This simple method makes praying easier and more focused.
Today we dive into this method and the reasoining of why we pray.

A lifelong lover of God’s creation, Jon is an avid whitetail deer hunter and outdoorsman. His passion for the outdoors has also led to years of involvement in the outdoor industry, including serving on the CVA Pro Staff team. For Jon, hunting is about much more than the pursuit—it’s an opportunity to slow down, enjoy God’s creation, build relationships, and recognize the connection between faith and the outdoors.
Whether preaching from the pulpit, recording weekly devotions with Christian Outdoors, sharing his testimony at a sportsman’s banquet, or simply gathering around a campfire with fellow outdoorsmen, Jon enjoys connecting with people and pointing them toward Jesus. For Jon, faith, family, community, and the outdoors are opportunities to serve, build relationships, and give God glory.
Jon would love to connect with your group for a men’s gathering, sportsman’s banquet, church event, or conversation about faith and the outdoors. He can be reached at jon@christianoutdoors.org.
