Free MP3 Audio Book

This month you can enjoy the classic by E. M. Bounds, Power Through Prayer. Also we are excited to announce that you can now purchase gift certificates at christianaudio.com.

Free Audiobook of the Month In a penetrating and forthright style, Edward M. Bounds offers stimulating advice to Christian servants. "The preaching that kills may have insight and grasp of principles, may be scholarly and critical in taste, may have every minutia of the derivation and grammar of the letter, may be able to trim the letter into its perfect pattern, and illume it as Plato and Cicero may be illumined, may study it as a lawyer studies his text-books to form his brief or to defend his case, and yet be like a frost, a killing frost. . . .Preaching which kills is prayerless preaching. Without prayer the preacher creates death, and not life." This audio book nourishes the heart and mind with Bounds' message about the role of prayer in the life of the Christian servant.

Proof That Prayer Works

God In The Fire - Prayer Saves A Town From A Wildfire

Tom Ascol shares how God saved his town from a wildfire, "To the best of my ability to determine it, God answered those prayers in Owasso--and no doubt many others from many places, including Cape Coral--within minutes of their being voiced."

Vision for Prayer and Teaching

“A spirit of earnest prayer should be the living soul of all your conduct. While your eye is fixed upon the children, your heart should be lifted up to God. You should sit down between them and the fountain of life, and, while opening, by instruction, a channel to their hearts, seek to draw the living stream by prayer from heaven. Your closet should be the constant scene of their welfare.

From The Sunday School Teacher Guide, 1834 by John Angell. Reprint from Solid Ground Christian Books. P.77

Review of Praying for the Next Generation by Sally Michael

Praying for the Next Generation by Sally Michael

The night my first son was born I had one of the most intense times of prayer in my life. God does something in our hearts when we have children. I was done pretending that I could manage life on my own. Many times God has reminded me of my duty to intercede for my wife and children. But I have often struggled what to pray. As the father/pastor of my children how should I pray?

Sally Michael answers those questions from the scriptures. This booklet is designed for daily use. It is a guide for praying scriptures for your children. There are a few pages with general prayer ideas and a how-to section. But the most of the book is her twelve topics to pray over your children. Each topic includes several excellent Bible passages printed directly in the book. After each topic there is also a blank section for you to write additional verses to pray through. The design is to rotate topics weekly or monthly. Praying through one topic can easily lead to ten or twenty minutes of prayer time.

What I like most about Sally Michael is her perspective. The book came from raising her own two daughters. She is a person who knows God. Everything she writes is Bible-saturated and God-centered. These are not verses she cut and paste just to put out a booklet. Rather, they were discovered as she prayed for her own children.

This little booklet is just under forty-five pages long and is available for $4 from the Desiring God Website. It would serve well for any parent, grandparent, or prayer warrior. I am using it for my own kids and for the children & families at my church. Pastors could use this to pray for their membership as well.
