Jesus was the ultimate people person — surrounded by crowds, followed everywhere, with barely a moment to Himself. So why did He keep slipping away to pray alone? In this post we look at three specific passages where Jesus went to a solitary place to pray, what time of day He prayed, and the intentional, sometimes radical, steps He took to carve out time with the Father. If you've been struggling to find space for a consistent prayer life, Jesus' example will both challenge and encourage you.
