Now to Him who is able to do far more abundantly beyond all that we ask or think, according to the power that works within us, 21 to Him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations forever and ever. Amen. Ephesians 3:20-21
Imagine a city where more than 100 churches and thousands of believers pray in an unceasing way, 24/7, for their community and for revival and spiritual awakening. That is happening in Austin, Texas, and now in city after city across the country. City of Prayer: Transform Your Community through Praying Churches by Pastors Trey Kent and Kie Bowman tells the story. Plus it shows the reader how this can happen in any community.
Having unceasing prayer in your community is possible–even in your community. It starts in and with the Christian church! It takes the leadership of local pastors to cultivate a culture of prayer. It also takes willing believers.
