PRAYER TRAINING: Prayer to Go web site

Bob Sjogren is a long time friend of mine who is well known in mission circles for his training on the Biblical Basis for Mission, or the Missionary Basis of the Bible. His book Unveiled at Last probably best capsulizes that particular training and I'll guarantee you won't regret getting and reading it. Additionally, his seminar, Cat & Dog Theology (and book by the same title) will rock your world as you discover how you are often more like a cat than a dog in how you relate to God -  and that's not a compliment (sorry cat lovers!).

    So where does Prayer to Go come in? Well, Bob has also created a excellent web site with free prayer training mp3s in various categories for both young and old. Check it out here and take a spin around the site and to see for yourself how this tool has considerable potential to jump start you into a life of prayer. It's like having a prayer mentor on your mp3 player.

    If you try it and actually take it to heart and put it into practice, please come back and let us know the benefit it has been to you ... and beyond you, through your prayers ... or how it might be improved or used in a different way that is already recommended. Finally, let Bob know as well and pray about partnering with him in the spread of Prayer to Go.

 

Blessings!

Tracking with Lausanne III

As a staff member of the Mission America Coalition, I work closely with John Quam and MAC's Global Connections. While John, and a number of MAC staff are either delegates to or serving in Cape Town, I'm back in the US - observing, praying and participating from afar through the many reports, videos, articles and blogs flowing from the various Lausanne addresses and group sessions.

If you haven't plugged in yet, here are a number of links to get you started:

Enough for now ... let's pray! Lord of the Harvest, via Cape Town 2010, may your harvest force be exponentially blessed with people & opportunity connections, partnerships, encouragements, insights and refreshing from your throne. May the unreached and least evangelized peoples of the world be blessed with church planting teams, Bible translators, gospel recordings, Jesus Video & God's Story translations and especially persistent intercession. May the poor, afflcted and persecuted among your people be assisted, cared for and prayed over. May the lost in every city, town and village be found through the thrusting out of freshly anointed believers, and may these be effectively engrafted into caring, equipping, local churches. Finally, may your global Church grow increasingly sensitive to the opportunity and obligation to worship and work cross-culturally with your "multi-cultural" bride for the greatest expression of Your global glory!
