sermonized

If you're looking for an academic treatise, this isn't it. The chapters read like sermons--good sermons--but do not represent the kind of study I was looking for.

Difficult to follow

I was interested in the 'how to' of intercessory prayer. Although the book gives some examples from the Authors point of view, it is difficult for me as a lay person to follow. I think it is perhaps the choice of words. In other words, it didn't really do much for me!

extraordinarily orderly book for unorderly hearts of prayer

Every secret question I have ever had about prayer and my search for answers to many peoples hurts have been recorded for my eyes to read in Dutch's book. This is the most organized, informative, stress relieving book on prayer I have ever read. It truly is an extraordinarily orderly book for people who have unorderly prayer habits.

Inspiring Book that will Blow Away Your Idea of Prayer

I read this book several years ago and it blew away my ideas of what prayer is and what prayer can do. If you have a conservative view of prayer, this book will open your eyes to a whole new world of prayer opportunities. Written with a liberal view of prayer techniques, you will find it interesting, uplifting and, quite possible, paradigm-cracking.

Answering Questions on Prayer

Dutch Sheets does a wonderful job of answering all the questions you may have, but are ashamed to ask, about prayer. Reading this book, and discussing it with others who have read it, I feel much more confident in prayer, and I look forward to my prayer time more. I would highly recommend this book for anyone who feels they need to take their prayer life to a higher level, as well as someone who is just beginning their journey into prayer.

eye-opening

although i may not agree with everything he says, dutch sheets has definitely inspired and enlightened me in the realm of prayer. sheets shows that our God-given authority in prayer invites God to exercise his victory- to demonstrate that the battle has already been won by Jesus. definitely the most eye-opening book that i've read on prayer.

A MUST READ!!! Soooooo Good!

This book was tremendous! It is the perfect book for the believer who wants a deeper, more effective prayer life. Dutch Sheets is funny, engaging, and his book reads like a conversation over brunch! i can't say enough about this book. Do yourself a favor, buy the rest of his books because once you read this one you will be hungry for more. I did and it was WORTH it!
