A life of prayer is irrefutable proof of God-dependency. This is true not only of the individual believer, but also of the local church, as evidenced in the New Testament. Churches therefore need to learn how to pray. But who will teach them? In this book, Paul Tautges convinces his readers that teachers and church leaders must not only tell their flocks to pray-they must also teach them how to do it. They must habitually instruct them in the biblical principles, examples, and commands concerning a life of prayer. In short, churches need a biblical theology of prayer. And leaders need a practical tool to help them produce an atmosphere of God-dependency in their churches. Teach Them to Pray is that tool. Book jacket.
