“After more than 20 years of church consulting, I can say with certainty I’ve never seen a praying church without a leader who was a prayer warrior. I have seen churches without a prayer warrior leader who are busy . . . and creative . . . and numerically growing . . . and well-known – but I’ve not yet come across a praying church without this leader. This recognition challenges me every day to be a praying pastor.”
