Here is a
"first" -- a layman's practical theology guidebook
to helping churches establish a real, personal, and corporate church
that is a "house of prayer" (read Luke 19:46). I know from
personal experience how timely and valuable these resources can be. God
has significantly blessed His people with Dr. Thomas Wright's very
practical, and deeply motivating resource.

Taking Prayer to
the Streets opens the way to become the life-giving servants
we've always wanted to be. This kind of sustained prayerwalking is
practical, biblical, and flexible. You'll learn how to pray for
entire communities, near or far, in the power of biblical hope. Read
this book to find the words to express how God has been expanding
your life of prayer. Practice this book for the joy of entering what
God is doing to glorify His Son in this amazing hour of history.
Steve Hawthorne,
Director of WayMakers and co-author of Prayerwalking: Praying
On-Site with Insight.

This book makes an
important contribution to the prayer mobilization effort. The solid
biblical foundations, practical helps, and insightful stories will
translate into specific, intentional, and biblical prayer that will
really make a difference. I believe "on mission" churches
that take the Prayer Journey Guidebook seriously will
experience a breakthrough in prayer.

Griend, Director of HOPE Ministries

"I Loved the
Prayer Journeys Guidebook. It is a complete presentation of two
important lessons: how to pray unceasingly with Jesus' passion for
the lost and how to make our churches houses of prayer. I really
appreciate the work and highly recommend this excellent book."

there is a renewal of this 1st century passion to know how to pray.
Dr. Thomas Wright provides a tool in this resource to equip and
mobilize a army of passionate prayer warriors to transform their
world.Lord, teach us to pray."(Luke 11:1) As we enter

know how to pray. Dr. Thomas Wright provides a tool in this resource

Have you ever
noticed how uniquely a pigeon walks? It walks that way because it
cannot adjust its focus as it moves. It must walk, stop, raise its
head…walk stop, raise its head. Our universe measures movement in
nano-seconds. If we are to reach our communities for Christ we must
slow down and walk, stop, pray—walk, stop, pray. Prayer brings the
resources of God into our daily battle with the evil one. Dr. Thomas
Wright has prepared an inclusive tool for all of us who need to
remember to walk, stop, pray. The Prayer Journeys Guidebook is a
great tool for sincere believers.
Dr. Robert E.
Reccord, President, NAMB

For too long
believers have considered prayer and evangelism as separate
disciplines. While they have their distinctives, they remain vitally
linked in the purposes of God. The Prayer Journeys Guidebook will
show believers how to link prayer and evangelism in a way that
develops intimacy with God through prayer which leads to a passion
for the Great Commission.
A second quote,
choose which you prefer:
I like to define
prayer as "intimacy with God which leads to the fulfillment of
his purposes." Few resources demonstrate this understanding of
prayer, however. The Prayer Journeys Guidebook will show believers
how to develop intimacy with God, and demonstrate how such intimacy
directly relates to the fulfillment of God's passion--the Great
Commission.

Seminary.

The Taking Prayer to the Streets: Prayer Journeys Resource Kit
can well accomplish three significant spiritual experiences for
anyone who will undertake the program seriously. 1. It will aid
gretly in learning to pray; 2) IT will give a practical down to
earth program for actually praying; 30 It will pave the way for
great personal evangelism, and all of these spiritual realities are
vital.
