Publisher's Summary

Discover the prayer habits of world-changing ministry leaders that will transform your life and your leadership.

Experienced leaders will tell you that you can’t lead on your own. The pressure, the impossible decisions, the high risks, the temptations, the people, the overwhelming schedule—it’s too much. Some leaders seek outside help. They pray.

Looking for help in their own leadership, entrepreneur Ryan Skoog, CEO Peter Greer, and executive advisor Cameron Doolittle set out to investigate how leaders pray. What do they say to God? How often do they pray, and for how long? Where do they pray? And how on earth do they make time for prayer?

Skoog, Greer, and Doolittle spent three years researching. They logged over one hundred hours of interviews with leaders in six continents who collectively serve in over one hundred countries. They researched or spoke with global entrepreneurs and business executives of Fortune 500 companies, as well as some of the most influential pastors and ministry leaders in the world—leaders such as

  • Joni Eareckson Tada
  • Francis Chan
  • John Mark Comer
  • Christine Caine
  • David Green
  • Mark Batterson
  • Among countless others.

Here in this book, the authors share the spiritual habits, techniques, and practices of these world-changing leaders, revealing specific details of their prayer lives. In addition, the book includes prayers for leaders to use in their own prayer time as well as tools for how to cultivate a personal and organizational commitment to prayer.

By allowing these men and women to lead us in prayer, we learn not only how to pray but also how to build a culture of prayer wherever we lead. It is only when our businesses, ministries, and churches pray that they will be transformed.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

What the critics say

"One of the best leaders I know said his life was changed by a single thought: God does not want more prayerless striving from me. Here is wise, deep, practical wisdom for leaders to work from a reality beyond themselves, for results beyond their abilities. If you have ever asked 'Lord, teach me to pray,' this may be your answer."—John Ortberg, Founder, BecomeNew

"I've read countless leadership books and prayer books, but Lead with Prayer is unique. Learning from praying leaders who've built thriving cultures of prayer is exactly what we need at this hour. I recommend you go through this book with every team you lead."—Mark Batterson, NYT bestselling author, The Circle Maker; Lead Pastor, National Community Church

"Every follower of Jesus that I know would say that prayer matters. Yet so often the pace of life, weighty decisions, and the tired state of our souls have distracted us from living as if it’s true. Lead With Prayer not only reminded me afresh that it is indeed true that prayer matters–it gave me a guide for moving forward in reclaiming prayer as the one non-negotiable in developing lasting fruit in my life. In this book, I was challenged, but not shamed. I was given a plan for prayer, but not a lifeless checklist to mark 'completed.' Lead With Prayer acts more like a gentle, yet firm, invitation to live and lead from a place of divine connection that is available to each of us. Perhaps the greatest thing I can say about this book is that it made me want to know Jesus more deeply. I pray it will do the same for you."—Jason Mitchell, Senior Pastor LCBC Church, author of No Easy Jesus

Changed my Prayer life!

This book was such an easy read, we read this as a staff at our church, and I found myself skipping ahead of the rest of the team often because I couldn’t put the book down, such extensive research, written for every kind of person. I loved the leadership applications.
