About Us
The School of Prayer exists to equip Christians in the art of intercessory prayer so that all churches will become a house of prayer for all Nations.
The School of Prayer was developed by Dr. David Ireland out of a burning desire to see intercessors worldwide reach new heights of effectiveness in prayer and intercession. Dr. Ireland is the lead pastor of Christ Church in NJ, a multi-site, non-denominational congregation of evangelical believers led by a missional statement of Uniting People to God and People to People. Dr. Ireland's passion for racial diversity and multi-ethnicity is reflected in Christ Church's body of believers, which represents approximately 70 nationalities. His global sensitivity and desire to reach the nations through prayer have led to him preaching in more than 75 countries.
Our hope for you is that through each lesson and course, your love for prayer and the joy of growing in your relationship with God will intensify and bring you into a whole new world of spiritual vitality.
The School of Prayer provides training in the art of intercessory prayer. We partner with strong regional churches that seek to equip believers in the discipline of prayer. The result is the strengthening of local churches, an increase of effective intercessors, and regional transformations.
One of the most powerful things a Christ-follower can learn to do is pray. Yet most people struggle in this area. The goal of The School of Prayer is to provide you with a thorough biblical instruction in the art of prayer, to remove common hindrances to the practice of prayer, and to infuse you with a passion for daily communion with God.

That Christ died for our sins, was buried, and rose again the third day, and personally appeared to His disciples (1 Corinthians 15:1-4; Romans 4:25).
