05 Jun First Tuesday’s Teaching Tips: New Book Announcement!

The first of each month we share First Tuesday’s Teaching Tips.

These are teaching nuggets from over thirty years in ministry.

We are excited this month to announce my new book – PRAY THE WORD – Discovering That Prayer Is Not Just For Comfort But For Results.

For too long, the church has taught prayer as some sort of spiritual placebo, almost as if God pats us on our head, saying, “There, there…One day, when you get to Heaven, everything will be all right.  In the meantime, you just be comforted and keep a good attitude while your ship is slowly sinking.”

Nothing could be further from the truth!

The Bible tells us in Jeremiah 3:15, “And I will give you pastors according to mine heart, which shall feed you with knowledge and understanding,” Knowledge is the “what,” but understanding is the “how”.  If I tell you what to pray without telling you how, you’ll just end up frustrated.  However, as a pastor after God’s heart, I want to tell you what and how to pray.  That way, you’ll end up motivated.

This new book gives you verses by categories in areas of our lives that, if we pray, will give us real results!
