Frequently asked questions...

Questions you might be thinking of...

Q: Can I call from a different time zone?
A: Yes! Just remember the time difference. 7:30pm PST (California)

Q: Can I call in late? (or ditch out early?)
A: Yes. No will know if you're late or have to hang-early because of dinner or putting the kids to bed.

Q: Is there another day you will be doing the prayer call?
A: Not at this time. We might choose to record the call and then people will be able to call in during the week and listen to the call. I will let you all know when I get this part up and running.

Q: Can my wife listen in?
A: WHAT! Okay, I guess, but only if you are the one calling in.

Q: Do you have to be a Christian to call in?
A: Heck no!

Q: What if I want to be the one praying on the call?
A: Email or send a message to Jesse and tell him you want to pray. We will do what we can to make it possible for people who want to be involved to have an opportunity to pray. Good question!

Q: Can I start my own prayer conference call?
A: Oh yeah! That is a great idea! Email or Message Jesse and he can help you get started.

Q: How can I share a prayer request for us to announce on the call?
A: Email or Message Jesse and let him know, this is one of the things we want to really encourage as people have need.

Q: What if I don't agree with the theology on the call?
A: You can continue to listen and pray, or decide not to call in. Your choice. We can talk about it, but ask the Holy Spirit before you ask me. He is my advocate, but I am up for discussion. -Jesse

Q: How did you come up with this idea?
A: The wonderful Holy Spirit shared it with me. How else?

Q: Can you send out a reminder for the call?
A: Review the other discussion topic on the "Text reminder". Right now I don't have a set-up for an email reminder, but that is do-able if people want one via email and not txt.

Q: How long is the prayer? What's the longest it can go?
A: After 20 minutes of prayer, we bless people to hang-up if they need/want to. After that, anyone who stays on the line can continue to pray. Usually Jesse will stay on for another 15-20 minutes. Theoretically as long as someone is on the line, the call will continue.

Q: How much does this cost you? Me?
A: It's free for me, and the cost to you is the price to make a long distance call. This is not an 1-800 number, but it is not a 1-900 either, so if your cell phone or home phone allows free long distant it should be free plus any normal charges for using minutes on your phone.

Q: If I have a testimony that comes from the call, where do I share them?
A: Email or Message Jesse or just write on the Group Wall or Comment on the Blog Site.
