Features & Highlights

  • New York Times
  • bestselling author John Eldredge offers readers a step-by-step guide to effective Christian prayer--now in trade paper.
  • How would it feel to enter into prayer with confidence and assurance—certain that God heard you and that your prayers would make a difference?
  • It would likely feel amazing
  • and
  • unfamiliar. That’s because often our prayers seem to be met with silence or don’t appear to change anything. Either response can lead to disappointment or even despair in the face of our ongoing battles and unmet longings—especially when we don’t know if we’re doing something wrong or if some prayers just don’t work.
  • New York Times
  • bestselling author John Eldredge confronts these issues directly in
  • Moving Mountains
  • by offering a hopeful approach to prayer that is effective, relational, and rarely experienced by most Christians.
  • In a world filled with danger, adventure, and wonder, we have at our disposal prayers that can transform the events and issues that matter most to us and to God.
  • Moving Mountains
  • shows you how to experience the power of daily prayer, learn the major types of prayers—including those of intervention, consecration, warfare, and healing—and to discover the intimacy of the cry of the heart prayer, listening prayer, and praying Scripture.
  • Things can be different, and you personally have a role to play with God in bringing about that change through prayer. It may sound too good to be true, but this is your invitation to engage in the kind of prayers that can move God's heart as well as the mountains before you.

You'll Never Pray the Same Way Again!

Thought you knew how to pray? Maybe you're only praying "zap" prayers. Find out how you and God can move mountains together, and what your expectations of answered prayer can really be. Sample prayers included. Eldredge comes across as really caring about his own life, his neighbors' lives, and his readers' lives. This book should be required reading for every pastor, theologian, and layman. Based on scripture. Learn types of prayers ("The Cry of the Heart," "The Prayer of Intervention," and "Prayer for Guidance." "There is a way things work." That includes prayer. After this book, you'll never pray the same way again. I can't wait to read other books by Eldredge.

God’s faithfulness in empowering His children

This book is the most empowering and hope-filled book I have ever read. I am in a place where freedom and growth is an intentional process of surrendering to cross and taking up my authority as a daughter. These prayers and awarenesses bring life and intimacy in a new way. I recommend it to anyone looking to go deeper and wider with the Lord.
