"John, I believe God has called me a layman to disciple, encourage, and pray for pastors. And the reason I came here today is so that I could pray for you." With those words, respected leader, speaker, and author John Maxwell saw his agenda replaced by God's agenda. The stranger who felt God's calling to pray for this pastor fulfilled a need in Maxwell that he didn't even know he had. And 14 years later, the results are evident at the 5,500 member Skyline Wesleyan Church in San Diego, California. Partners in Prayer, the first book in the John Maxwell Church Resources series, shows church leaders and laypeople how to unleash the potential of prayer on behalf of themselves, one another, and the church. Are you missing out on God's gift and blessing of prayer? Is there someone you know who would benefit from your committed prayers on their behalf? Despite God's promise of the power of prayer to change our world, many of us never experience it.

Instead, she embraces uncertainty and fights for her people. In doing so, she not only exposed and foiled the plans of an evil man--she singlehandedly saved her nation. As you dive deeper into Esther's story, you'll learn timeless lessons that you can apply to your own life, including: the importance of standing up for what you believe in, even when it's difficult, how to embrace your God-given strength, and the true limits of retaliation.
