Whilst I would normally welcome any at...Dear John,<br /><br />Whilst I would normally welcome any attempt to encourage people to pray, I have to confess I do have some concerns about aspects of your Prayer Market website.<br /><br />What concerns me is the idea of earning prayer credits by making payments, and where it states that 'Prayer Readers can earn up to ten dollars per hour in donations.' I feel uncomfortable about this aspect of the site.<br /><br />Is that the primary aim of this site to encourage people to pray, or to make money? <br /><br />Is there any teaching on the site about what prayer is about? I noticed with interest that one person had written "God grant that the packers beat the patriots by at least 6 points next week amen." For me prayer is at the heart of a relationship with God.<br /><br />Also how do you protect peoples privacy on this site? For example, I may not want some personal details being shared online without my permission, but again some prayers mention peoples full names, which they might not be happy with.<br /><br />These are just some of my initial thoughts having taken a quick look at the site. Having said all this, encouraging people to pray is important, but I'd want to reserve judgement on whether this is the best way of doing that. <br /><br />I'd be interested in how you respond to my comments!<br /><br />Best wishes<br /><br />SimonAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08941171920948123325noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2585657765890901753.post-84714271756031284792010-12-15T20:44:05.613+00:002010-12-15T20:44:05.613+00:00Hey Simon, my name is John.

I'd love to hear your thoughts about this prayer exchange website <a href="http://www.prayermarket.com/" rel="nofollow">PrayerMarket.com</a> I thought it was an interesting idea and would be curious to hear what you (or other Christians) think about it<br /><br />I'll check back here in the next day or two, thanks & God bless<br />John W.John Wilsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09706225178963924921noreply@blogger.com
