Leaders have SO much on their plates, that we often don't make time for prayer. After studying extraordinary kingdom leaders, Peter Greer is convinced prayer is one of THE great practices of amazing leaders. Peter shares insights from his book on prayer and highlights the prayer habits of extraordinary leaders. They also explore the obstacles that leaders face in engaging in prayer and the need to prioritize prayer in busy lives. Peter emphasizes the value of wasting time in prayer and the impact it can have on intimacy with God. They discuss the importance of shaping cultures of prayer and offer practical recommendations for personal prayer practices. Instead of just talking about prayer we leave you with a guided prayer time at the end.
