with Mark Davies, Regional Development Director, GLO Europe

On today’s The Same Commission, the podcast turns to the topic of prayer, and specifically how to pray for mission. Mark Davies, GLO, explores with Matt and Jim why prayer is so important in our relationship with God, what he appreciates about other people’s prayers as he served in mission and how can we pray when things get difficult.

Mark Davies is the GLO Europe Regional Development Director. He and his wife Shirley now live and serve in London, based at Highgate international Church. Previously (1983-2004) they, along with their five children, lived in Zambia, engaged in Bible teaching, church planting and social care projects.

“I see prayer very much as a two-way communication – prayer and Bible reading – we say that prayer is us talking to God and Bible reading is God talking to us. I get that but actually prayer is meant to be a two-way communication, conversation with God, So if we see it from the angle ‘I’m in a relationship with God, how does that work? It works by talking – [it is like] any marriage, any relationship, if you’re not talking and listening - then prayer is vital because that’s how we talk to God and how God talks with us” – Mark Davies, Regional Development Director, GLO Europe
