The Oreo model of prayer

OreoIn the second session, Kay taught the Vineyard 5-step prayer model. But she cheated, and reduced it to 3 steps (isn’t that a Vineyard heresy?), which she called interview – pray – interview. Nobody remembers the five steps anyway, it’s something you internalize over time.

She actually went over all 5 steps without identifying them. This session took a lot more explanation of nuts & bolts so it took time to get to the exercise, but it is still so cool to see a roomful of people praying for each other in small clusters, learning how to be supernatural without being freaky. It’s a beautiful thing.

When Kay said, “There are 3 steps: Interview, pray, interview,” somebody (was it Thomas?) said, “Like an Oreo.”

    Chris, over at Paradoxology, is asking a related question: Are We Too Sphisticated for Healing?. This post on the Vineyard model is relevent, so I threw up a link.
