A Praying Church: Becoming a People of Hope in a Discouraging World

In our current culture, the church and prayer are often dismissed as irrelevant. But when believers gather and pray together, powerful things happen. In A Praying Church, Paul E. Miller 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. Readers 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.

Paul E. Miller is executive director of seeJesus, a global discipling mission he founded in 1999 to help Christians and non-Christians alike “see Jesus.” Today, seeJesus works in over 30 countries and has books and interactive Bible study materials translated into at least a dozen languages.

Paul is the author of more than a dozen interactive Bible studies and books, including the best-selling A Praying Life and J-Curve. If you read any of Paul’s writing, you’ll quickly see that he loves to tell stories—most of which start with his own failures and mishaps and end with God’s faithfulness.

Paul is married to Jill, who is known for her sense of humor and faith. They have six children and a growing number of grandchildren and live in the Philadelphia area. Follow @_PaulEMiller on Twitter, listen to the Seeing Jesus with Paul Miller podcast, or learn more at seeJesus.net.
