Prayer (eBook) by John Onwuchekwa

What is the role of corporate prayer in the church? Prayer is as necessary to the Christian as breathing is to the human body— but it often doesn't come quite as naturally. In fact, prayer in the church often gets subtly pushed to the side in favor of pragmatic practices that promise tangible results. This book focuses on the necessity of regular prayer as a central practice in the local church—awakening us to the need and blessing of corporate prayer by examining what Jesus taught about prayer, how the first Christians approached prayer, and how to prioritize prayer in our congregations.

Help for a Forgotten Spiritual Skill: Corporate Prayer

Prayer: How Praying Together Shapes the Church by John Onwuchekwa is another small book (137 pages) in the 9Marks Building Healthy Churches series. Onwuchekwa’s book is now one of my favorites in this series. It was a joy to read and motivating without leveraging guilt. His style is preaching-friendly for teaching others and user-friendly for actually praying with others. Onwuchekwa provides hope and help for this forgotten spiritual skill.
