About this listen

Paul Miller, Bestselling Author of A Praying Life, on the Transforming Power of Praying Together

In our current culture, the church and prayer are often dismissed as irrelevant. But when believers gather and pray together, powerful things happen: the Spirit equips the saints for ministry, the helpless are met with help, and believers experience the joy of being led by the Spirit of Jesus. In this audiobook, Paul E. Miller, bestselling author of A Praying Life, casts a vision for a return to the simple yet life-changing practice of praying together.

Through personal stories and biblical examples, Miller teaches the why, what, and how of praying together. Listeners will learn how praying with other Christians can transform their communities into beacons of hope and be given practical strategies—such as finding a prayer partner and prioritizing a structured prayer time—to implement these changes in their own church.

  • Ideal for Group Study: Small groups, Sunday school classes, and others will find helpful strategies to think through and discuss
  • Engaging and Personal: Features real life stories, word pictures, and charts to help listeners understand the content

The importance of Prayer

This book was read by our church during our 21 day fast. The knowledge I obtained is priceless.

Renewing

I appreciated the practical wisdom and faith-helps from someone whose has put in their time seeking God in prayer over the years. This is not a head-analysis of prayer, nor a tour of scripture on the subject (though plenty is used to good effect), but more of a heartcry, testimony, and brotherly advice rolled-up together. Easy to grasp and will encourage your faith.

Must Read

Simple and straightforward, but challenging. If you desire more of Jesus in your life and church, pray together.

Prayer, the church's lifeline!

Loved every chapter, the real story examples for encouragement and refreshing the sluggish often hopeless prayer ministries within our churches. Paul E Miller, as he did with a Praying Life, reminded us in a 'no one size fit all' manner the timelessness God centered , spirit filled ways to breathe life into the life of a church and its members as they come together and bear each other's burdens. The life of a church must be anchored in a love and desire to pray corporately. Souls will find hope and life.

Memorable, talk less about the problems (they do matter); but pray more for Resurrection power to heal, restore, bless, and build. Thank you, Paul Miller.
