Book Description
More than 95 percent of the psalms express or invite audible words. This book will inform, equip, and inspire you to proclaim prayers that spread the gospel. We are living in times of great discrimination against the message of the church. Special interest groups boldly stand on platforms and speak out in ways much like Goliath did when he mocked the armies of the Lord. The generals of that time hid and were afraid to speak out, but we must learn from their mistake. God is recruiting voices from the wilderness of the America we live in today to stand and speak truth in love. The general attitude of many people is that prayer should be offered up only in the privacy of sanctuaries or the seclusion of prayer closets. This book defies that idea. As others are boldly coming out of the closet for whatever they are passionate about, so should believers! We know that there is life and death in the power of the tongue. We also know God’s people perish for a lack of knowledge. Pray Out Loud not only informs and trains readers; it also equips them with prayers and declarations so they can intercede with power. This book encourages Christians to refuse to be silenced and instead to become violent interrupters who stand in the gap and with loud voices proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ. FEATURES AND BENEFITS: Trains and equips you to overcome intimidation and receive impartation to intercede with power Includes declarations and decrees for intercession and spiritual warfare

How to Pray

Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 272
Book Description
Pete Greig is a worldwide authority and the face of a generation when it comes to prayer. One of the founders of the 24-7 prayer movement, he has seen, experienced, and chronicled amazing works of God in the world. While you might imagine him to be puffed up, Pete Greig is entirely the opposite. He is enchanting, down-to-earth, friendly, and most of all, very normal–and yet he tells preposterous tales about prayer (and they’re true). He is basically a regular dude who loves to talk with God. How to Pray is written to evoke a passion for prayer in everyone—the committed follower of Jesus as well as the skeptic and the scared. The enormous blessing of How to Pray is that it is accessible, full of surprising stories of answered prayer, and tremendously engaging. The basic idea is that prayer is a conversation between you and God. Pete Greig demystifies and reenchants prayer, helping you to find prayer achievable and enjoyable, and ultimately life-giving and life-changing. How to Pray is designed to be used together with The Prayer Course (a free video curriculum associated with the Alpha course), making it useful for personal and group or church-wide reading.

Where the Light Fell
Author: Philip Yancey
Publisher: Convergent Books
ISBN: 0593238524
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 321
Book Description
In this searing meditation on the bonds of family and the allure of extremist faith, one of today’s most celebrated Christian writers recounts his unexpected journey from a strict fundamentalist upbringing to a life of compassion and grace—a revelatory memoir that “invites comparison to Hillbilly Elegy” (Publishers Weekly, starred review). “Searing, heartrending . . . This stunning tale reminds us that the only way to keep living is to ask God for the impossible: love, forgiveness, and hope.”—Kate Bowler, New York Times bestselling author of Everything Happens for a Reason Raised by an impoverished widow who earned room and board as a Bible teacher in 1950s Atlanta, Philip Yancey and his brother, Marshall, found ways to venture out beyond the confines of their eight-foot-wide trailer. But when Yancey was in college, he uncovered a shocking secret about his father’s death—a secret that began to illuminate the motivations that drove his mother to extreme, often hostile religious convictions and a belief that her sons had been ordained for a divine cause. Searching for answers, Yancey dives into his family origins, taking us on an evocative journey from the backwoods of the Bible Belt to the bustling streets of Philadelphia; from trailer parks to church sanctuaries; from family oddballs to fire-and-brimstone preachers and childhood awakenings through nature, music, and literature. In time, the weight of religious and family pressure sent both sons on opposite paths—one toward healing from the impact of what he calls a “toxic faith,” the other into a self-destructive spiral. Where the Light Fell is a gripping family narrative set against a turbulent time in post–World War II America, shaped by the collision of Southern fundamentalism with the mounting pressures of the civil rights movement and Sixties-era forces of social change. In piecing together his fragmented personal history and his search for redemption, Yancey gives testament to the enduring power of our hunger for truth and the possibility of faith rooted in grace instead of fear. “I truly believe this is the one book I was put on earth to write,” says Yancey. “So many of the strands from my childhood—racial hostility, political division, culture wars—have resurfaced in modern form. Looking back points me forward.”

Could the gospel be lost in evangelical churches? In this book, J.D. Greear shows how moralism and legalism have often eclipsed the gospel, even in conservative churches.

Audacious Prayers for World Changers
Author: Jade Simmons
Publisher: CreateSpace
ISBN: 9781511598125
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 158
Book Description
Finally, a devotional designed with the extraordinary in mind! Audacious Prayers for World Changers is written to match the intensity of the already bold and fearless believer while elevating the confidence and the faith of those looking to behave more audaciously in their walk with God. Experience 31 days of powerful, unabashed prayer based on God's most incredible promises. Audacious Prayers was created to give Big Dreamers and Big Believers the Big Words to match their Big Vision. This is prayer not for the faint-hearted but for those ready to bust through walls, change atmospheres, increase territory, revolutionize industry, transform mindsets and cover and protect themselves and their families in the process of all their trail-blazing. Each Audacious Prayer is followed by a helpful prompt that causes you to look more clearly at your surroundings and believe more fiercely in your purpose and God-designed destiny. You'll be able to record your breakthroughs as they happen! Watch God Work! About the Author: At first glance, Jade Simmons, a renowned concert pianist might be a somewhat unexpected author of a book about prayer. But it's "Classical Music's No.1 Maverick's" staunch belief in God's audacious purpose for her life that has led the inimitable phenom to her trailblazing career. The former youth pastor, and current member of the women's ministry leadership team at her home church in Houston, TX is in the midst of a career that has spanned the Miss America stage to the White House to some of the most prestigious venues and organizations in classical music. Today, she also has the ear of those looking to do what she has done by turning their creative passions into profitable enterprise. Jade's belief that her God-given ministry was bigger than Beethoven has afforded her extraordinary opportunities outside of music to influence and impact on a grander scale. Audacious Prayers was created to embolden us to become allergic to status quo, to believe again in the supernatural and in the truth and hope of God's big promises. This devotional gives us the words and the audacity to call those promises forth in our lives.
