What Others Say About This Book:
Practical, specific, doable, valuable. These are words that came to my mind as I read Planning a Prayer Retreat by my friend, Deborah Miller. I've known Deborah for over 20 years and have always appreciated her walk with the Lord and her perspective on how to please Him.
Most books on prayer are designed to increase our personal prayer life. This book is different. It shows the value and the power of joining our prayers with the prayers of others. But it goes beyond that. It also addresses very practical aspects of how to make it happen. Who should be invited? Where should we go? How long should we be there? What about meals? How do we start? How do we know what to pray for? Dr. Miller addresses these and many other practical issues so you can get a running start at how to help others experience the joy of meaningful prayer times with others. This book is not only worth reading, it is worth doing.
