Jesus once told his followers that he longed for them to have not just life, but abundant life—things like joy, peace, hope, belonging, purpose, freedom, and more. But if we’re honest, a lot of times we ask ourselves: where is all that stuff?

None of us want to look like we’re one kind of person but really be someone else underneath. Drifting away from God happens slowly, and it can be hard to notice when it’s happening to us. In this 1-part study, Sandra Stanley shares three prayers that are key to keeping us from being people who are not truly the people we appear to be. These three prayers can shape our relationship with God and become a defense against drift. They will shape who we are and can inform the choices we make in life.
