Publisher's summary

Discover the power of authentically communicating with God, breaking out of the restrictive "spiritual safety bubble", and expanding your faith of what is possible with God.

Do you ever wonder, "Why doesn't God answer my prayers?" Do you wish you could see the evidence that prayer changes lives? Do you long for more than playing it safe in your faith?

Prayer moves the heart of God - but some prayers move Him more than others. He wants more for us than a tepid faith and half-hearted routines at the dinner table. He's called you to a life of courage, not comfort.

In Dangerous Prayers, New York Times best-selling author Craig Groeschel will show you how to pray the prayers that search your soul, break your habits, and send you to pursue the calling God has for you. But be warned: If you're fine with settling for what's easy, or you're okay with staying on the sidelines, this book isn't for you. You'll be challenged. You'll be tested. You'll be moved to take a long, hard look at your heart.

But you'll be inspired, too.

You'll be inspired to pray boldly. To pray powerfully. To pray with fire. You'll see how you can trade ineffective prayers and lukewarm faith for raw, daring prayers that will push you to new levels of passion and fulfillment. You'll discover the secret to overcome fears of loss, rejection, failure, and the unknown and welcome the blessings God has for you on the other side.

You'll gain the courage it takes to pray dangerous prayers.

A prayer guide and discussion questions are available in the audiobook companion PDF download.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Great book!

As a person who struggles in my prayer life. Bridled with fear and comfort my prayer life has been a constant struggle. This books uses scripture to break down prayer and why it’s important for our life and relationship with God. Bombarded with all types of emotions as I listen to this book I come to a full surrender to pray a dangerous prayer.

Functional and applicable prayers

Great book, not only do we learn about how to pray but we also learn more about the author. Knowing the struggles he has had to overcome and embrace makes him much more relatable. If you are tired of your same petitions and earnestly seek to be challenged and to grow in your prayer life give this book a listen.

Good listen or read depending on how you take in your books.

Listened to the book today on audible. Are you praying dangerous prayers? Favorite part was Pastor Craig telling the story of his mom announcing that she needed someone to find a clergyman that knew how to pray his own prayers. Amen! Good listen or read depending on how you take in your books.

This powerful book is changing my prayers!

Through this book, Craig Groeschel has challenged my thinking about prayer and what kinds of prayers I can pray. These are life-changing prayers that push my faith and deepen my trust in God. And I love that he reads it himself, because it feels like he’s just talking to me personally. If you want to grow in your relationship with God, get this book!!

Praying Dangerously is a Challenge

Everyone who claims the Christian faith should read this book. Narrated well and the call to quit being selfish, take godly risk in trusting Yahweh our God. To prayer Dangerously is really leaping out into the unknown but trusting the LORD via the Holy Spirit to lead, guide, and protect along the way. Are you open for the challenge?
