The Basic Course lays the biblical foundation for a life of intercession. Across nine modules, you will move from understanding what intercession is, to discovering who the intercessor is, to practicing scriptural prayer patterns you can use for the rest of your life. It is the required starting point for every student of the Academy, whether you are brand new to prayer ministry or have interceded for years without formal training.
