If you’ve read Paul Miller’s book, A Praying Life (one of Chuck Lawless’s favorite books on prayer), you’ll also want to read this book about leading your church to pray:

A Praying Church: Becoming a People of Hope in a Discouraging World by Paul E. Miller

“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 ebook, 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.”
