This book answers many questions about the value of intercessory prayer. One of the best resources I have every found on making prayer effective in our personal lives and to add power to the pastor and local church.

This book was released in churches all over America along with an excellent video on creating pastoral prayer teams. I've used the combination to start prayer teams in several churches. If your church does not have an organized team that lifts your pastor in prayer this book will help you create one.

I will be honest about one drawback. This book effectively uses several studies to highlight the struggles many pastors wrestle with. However, some of these studies are now over a decade old.

As a pastor I strongly recomend that each and every lay person and board member read this book. It is encouraging and insightful, it will challenge each person to a deeper prayer life.

I wanted this book specifically for a class I am teaching. It is thought provoking and in introspective. I have found it to be exactly what I need to prepare the members of my class to become prayer partners.

This book is helping me to plan and implement a prayer ministry in our church. It is also helping me in my prayer life. I recommend this book to anyone who wishes to improve their personal prayer life.

This book is so well written and covers a multitude of deficiencies in concepts, attitude and organization of prayer teams within the church. It is important to remember to pray for the strength and Christ-centered leadership for church leaders and pastors; it is also important to consider prayer as the vital tool for discipleship building. I especially like the personalization of a "real life event" that worked because unleashing the potential of prayer.
I will soon be preaching a series on this book and have a study mid-week on it; this is the second church that I have used this book in. I urge every church to pick up this book and get started on a prayer team...you can only be blessed if you do. Thank you, John Maxwell, for a well written, easy to comprehend book.

This is by far the best book I have read on Prayer Partner ministry that is specifically directed on praying for your pastor. If more churches could concentrate praying for their pastor, just imagine the spiritual growth that could occur instead of seeing all the failures falling all around us. If we uplift our pastors, they will uplift us!

Our church decided to use 40 copies of this book.

bought 40 copies of it used, most arrived in excelent condition.

Few were bent or coffee stained. A really good deal...
