This book is a gem, full of wisdom! I’ve been challenged & encouraged on the importance of prayer, as well as learned ways to incorporate it into my daily rhythms. Highly recommend!

The authors write on prayer as “enthusiasts, not experts,” and I loved that posture. One author talks about checking emails during a prayer meeting: relatable. This book won’t make you feel bad about your starting point, but it will inspire you to want to grow in prayer.

A challenging and encouraging call for Christian leaders to practice what they preach. I will be revisiting this one and implementing its recommendations on how to lead entirely out of a prayerful dependence on God. Highly recommended! American Christians need to read this!

"Lead with Prayer" is a book that, from its very first anecdote about Billy Graham on his knees, beckons any leader who has ever felt the weight of their role to reconsider where true strength is found. It's not just a book; it's a quiet corner in the bustling café of leadership resources, where the clatter of keyboards is replaced by the hush of introspection and the steam from the coffee machine speaks of a different kind of awakening.

The author lays down the gauntlet with a challenge wrapped in an invitation: to boast not in wisdom, power, or riches but in knowing and understanding God (Jeremiah 9:23-24). This scriptural thread is not just a verse to be read but a lifeline to be grasped by those drowning in the sea of modern leadership mantras.

As someone who has navigated the choppy waters of leadership myself, I felt the book speaking to me, prodding at the often neglected corners of my practice. "Lead with Prayer" isn't just for the devoutly religious or those leading within ecclesiastical confines. It's for anyone who senses that leadership is as much about inner strength as it is about outward success. The book suggests that our leadership struggles are not just problems to be solved but prayers to be lived.

The author's examination of prayer as an essential leadership practice is both a rebuke and a remedy for the prayer problem that plagues our boardrooms and office spaces. It's not a call to the easy path but to a well-trodden one, marked by the knees of those who have led before us with a reliance on something greater than themselves.

"Lead with Prayer" is a personal recommendation to anyone who's ever questioned if there's more to leadership than strategy and success. It offers a paradigm where vulnerability in prayer is the bedrock of strength in leadership. As someone who's often found myself in leadership positions more by chance than by choice, I found the book a guiding companion, reminding me that in the quiet whispers of a prayer might just lie the loud triumphs of a leader.

I think putting your best foot forward and always looking ahead not behind is such an important trait for any human being to have. Now, this is easier said than done, but something that we can all work on. Working and redefining ourselves is the epitome of being human. I think that sometimes we become so caught up on the hype and trying to please others before we please ourselves is so detrimental.

This author was able to bring out those lessons that we need to hear and learn in order to become our best selves!
