Description
According to Pastor Mark Batterson in this Zondervan ebook, The Circle Maker, “Drawing prayer circles around our dreams isn’t just a mechanism whereby we accomplish great things for God. It’s a mechanism whereby God accomplishes great things in us.” Do you ever sense that there’s far more to prayer, and to God’s vision for your life, than what you’re experiencing? It’s time you learned from the legend of Honi the Circle Maker—a man bold enough to draw a circle in the sand and not budge from inside it until God answered his prayers for his people. What impossibly big dream is God calling you to draw a prayer circle around? Sharing inspiring stories from his own experiences as a circle maker, Mark Batterson will help you uncover your heart’s deepest desires and God-given dreams and unleash them through the kind of audacious prayer that God delights to answer.

5By Don Furr author QuestI will never pray the same. Mark Batterson has a keen insight into the regimen of prayer. Now I pray knowing that God wants to bless His children and that nothing pleases Him more! As simple as that sounds it never really hit home until reading Circle Maker! I am now reading it through a second time, reading my highlights from the first reading which is 60% of the book! It is now a part of my daily routine. I even threw away the game apps on my phone and now read it every chance I get which is several times a day. His promises carry me through. God is so good! Thank you pastor Batterson! I hope to visit your church one day soon!Great book Highly recommended

5By j_nizzleIf you struggle with prayer, this book will help you tremendously!Life Changing
5By LBosWorldA practical guide to prayer. Before I started reading this book, I felt overwhelmed by Prayer. Like I had to pray for everyone and their mom. But this book taught me how to focus my prayers and gave me practical ways to do so. I also felt, before reading this book, that asking God for the BIG things was too much. That maybe I should quietly say it and then hope God does it. But again, this book challenged me. And helped me see that God honors the prayers that scare me. And he wants me to pray those kinds of prayers. My life will never be the same after this book.
