But Christians are not powerless to help: we can pray. In fact, that's exactly what God tells us to do: 'petitions, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving [should] be made for all people' (1 Timothy 2 v 1-2). If we're serious about reaching our local community and the wider world with the gospel, the first thing we'll do is pray. Trouble is, most of us don't know where to start. How do we pray meaningfully for people who we don't know and will probably never meet? Deep down, the issues seem too big, too emotionally disconnected, and we're not sure our prayers will really make a difference. That's where this little book is designed to help. It will equip you to pray powerful prayers for the world around you—prayers that really change things, because they're based on God's word. Each spread takes a passage of Scripture and suggests 5 things to pray for a local, national, or international issue. Because when we pray in line with God's priorities as found in his word, our prayers are powerful and effective (James 5 v 16)—and that's a truly thrilling prospect. Use this book to: • Guide your prayers during your personal quiet times • Equip church members to pray meaningfully for your local community and nation • Help you prepare expressive public intercessions for church • Fuel your church prayer meeting • Help you know how to pray in the wake of major world events Use this book in any number of ways: work through it as part of your daily quiet time, or pick it up whenever a situation arises that is in particular need of prayer. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Good Book Company","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":33085014737027,"sku":"9781784982584","price":11.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0317\/8499\/2899\/products\/9781784982584.jpg?v=1587042538"},{"product_id":"9781925335194-growing-yourself-up","title":"Growing Yourself Up","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReprinting: Expected availability September\/October 2025\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2nd edition of this bestselling book helps you understand yourself by understanding your relationships.

Often those convictions are good, biblical and life-giving, but sometimes they are unexamined and harmful to those around us. And while God never says that self-improvement can come solely from within, he does encourage his people to examine themselves and aim to become more like Christ. We prayerfully change—we get over ourselves—by seeking to more closely imitate Jesus the servant. But how do we explore our hearts and lives without drifting into self-absorption? What situations could benefit the most from a time of reflection? How can we ensure we have good self-reflection habits? In Getting Over Yourself, Caroline Spencer answers these questions and others as she provides a model for healthy Christian self-reflection. She works through the rationale of growing a self-reflection habit while avoiding the pitfalls, and outlines with examples a useful structure that encourages us to see how God’s grace is shaping and transforming us.
