The doctrine of covenant has been overlooked as a rich source for preaching in the modern church. A sermon series on the doctrine of covenant may positively influence the practice of the discipline of prayer in the lives of those who seek a deeper walk with God. The researcher chose to preach this series in the genre of first person biblical characters. This study describes how the researcher presented a sermon series to a local church congregation utilizing responses from the congregation and a small group to measure changes, if any, in cognitive and/or behavioral practices in their practice of prayer. This is an evaluation study in the experimental mode which uses a pre- and post-test design. Two procedures were used to evaluate the effectiveness of the intervention. 1. A qualitative approach involved the use of interview, anecdotes taken from informal conversation, and comments by the participants in the small group. 2. A quantitative approach was utilized which involved the structure of prayer scale developed by Luckow, Ladd, Spilka, McIntosh, Parks, & Laforett. This scale provided a measure of the practice of prayer.
