Extreme Prayer: The Impossible Prayers God Promises to Answer

by Greg Pruett - Christian, Christian Living, Nonfiction

What do you do when your whole spiritual life falls apart? It is in these heart-hungry moments --- when we feel overwhelmed or alone, struggle with unanswered prayers, aren’t sure what to do, or are crying out for God’s help --- that we are surprisingly poised to pray the most effective kinds of prayers possible. EXTREME PRAYER taps into that longing for connection with God when we need it most by teaching us to pray the kinds of prayers Jesus promised to answer with unlimited power.
