Lead with Prayer

The Spiritual Habits of World-Changing Leaders

De: Ryan Skoog, Peter Greer, Cameron Doolittle, Jill Heisey, John Mark Comer - introduction

Narrado por: Ryan Skoog

Discover the prayer practice of ministry leaders–and transform your life and your leadership.

Even the most experienced leaders seek outside help–they pray. Looking for help in their own leadership, entrepreneur Ryan Skoog, CEO Peter Greer, and executive advisor Cameron Doolittle set out to investigate how established leaders pray.

In this book, the authors share the spiritual habits, techniques, and practices of world-changing leaders. In addition, they include prayers for leaders to use in their own prayer time as well as tools for how to cultivate a personal and organizational commitment to prayer.

By allowing these men and women to lead us in prayer, we learn not only how to pray, but how to build a culture of prayer wherever we lead. It is only when our businesses, ministries, and churches pray that they will be transformed.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"One of the best leaders I know said his life was changed by a single thought: God does not want more prayerless striving from me. Here is wise, deep, practical wisdom for leaders to work from a reality beyond themselves, for results beyond their abilities. If you have ever asked 'Lord, teach me to pray,' this may be your answer."—John Ortberg, Founder, BecomeNew

"I've read countless leadership books and prayer books, but Lead with Prayer is unique. Learning from praying leaders who've built thriving cultures of prayer is exactly what we need at this hour. I recommend you go through this book with every team you lead."—Mark Batterson, NYT bestselling author, The Circle Maker; Lead Pastor, National Community Church

"Every follower of Jesus that I know would say that prayer matters. Yet so often the pace of life, weighty decisions, and the tired state of our souls have distracted us from living as if it’s true. Lead With Prayer not only reminded me afresh that it is indeed true that prayer matters–it gave me a guide for moving forward in reclaiming prayer as the one non-negotiable in developing lasting fruit in my life. In this book, I was challenged, but not shamed. I was given a plan for prayer, but not a lifeless checklist to mark 'completed.' Lead With Prayer acts more like a gentle, yet firm, invitation to live and lead from a place of divine connection that is available to each of us. Perhaps the greatest thing I can say about this book is that it made me want to know Jesus more deeply. I pray it will do the same for you."—Jason Mitchell, Senior Pastor LCBC Church, author of No Easy Jesus

"Perhaps the biggest mistake a leader could make is trying to lead without their greatest tool, and that’s prayer. In Lead with Prayer, Ryan, Peter, and Cameron passionately reveal the transformative power of cultivating a vibrant prayer life within leadership roles. This book serves as a rallying cry for leaders of all kinds to shift their focus from self-reliance and achievement to a dynamic relationship with God. You can be known as a smart leader. You can be known as a visionary leader. But there’s nothing quite like being known as a praying leader. This book is a must-read for anyone seeking to lead with purpose, impact, and an unwavering commitment to prayer."—Ryan Leak, Wall Street Journal Best Selling Author of Leveling Up, Speaker, CEO, Ryan Leak Group

"Nothing of eternal value happens unless we join God where He is working, and discernment like that comes from being deeply connected to Him through prayer. Lead withPrayer will inspire and move you to cultivate an authentic culture of prayer, first in your own life and then in the lives of those you lead. I can’t think of a more strategic discipline for all leaders to model and multiply."—Santiago “Jimmy” Mellado, President and CEO, Compassion International

It really spoke to me. Exactly what I needed to hear. I was convicted that I have been trying to lead in my own power and that is why I’m exhausted and frustrated.

Great encouragement & challenge

Great job to the authors and the people they interviewed.
