Prayer First Heartland

Out of a desire to grow in his own prayer life, Dana Olson began to dig into Scripture to learn what the Bible teaches us about prayer.  From his own personal study, a prayer ministry was born.  His passion for praying God’s Word drives him to share what he’s learned with others through writing and in-person events.  For over 35 years Dana has led Prayer Weekends, Retreats, Concerts of Prayer and various other prayer growth opportunities in hundreds of churches!

Dana would love to help you shape a prayer event for your church or organization.  His ministry vision is calling believers to a movement of earnest prayer through practical, biblical teaching, and putting that training into practice! 

Consider the teaching topics below for options for your prayer event.  This list is not exhaustive.  Dana will work with your leadership to design the event to suit your church!
