Discovering The Power Of Talking With God
In Passionate Prayer you will share in Catherine’s wellspring of prayer experience from a woman who has walked with God for many years. She wisely states, "Prayer is God’s prescription for a troubled heart. The more you pray, the more you experience God’s peace." I have found this to be true in my life and I’m sure you will find it to be true in yours. May the pages you read today jumpstart your prayer life and turn it into consistent, honest conversation with the Prince of Peace, Jesus Christ.
Prayer is God’s prescription for a troubled heart. The more you pray, the more you experience God’s peace. And peace is passionate prayer’s great result." … "This deepening life of prayer is meant to be a passion for you and me, the lifeblood of our spirituality, forming the very fiber of our soul. The power of a praying life is unparalleled for God is at work in such a life. The praying life depends on God and relies on His strength.
Catherine Martin
"Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything.
Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done."
— Philippians 4:6 NLT

Passionate Prayer 30DJ. It is obvious from her responsibilities that Catherine Martin is well organized in her use of time. Add to that her spiritual gifts, natural abilities, understanding of the shallowness of much of American Christianity, biblical, historical, and theological studies, and practical Christian service and you have a formula for a powerful, engaging invitation to prayer. This detailed journey is for the serious seeker of a deeper walk with God … enriched by insights into her life and the rewarding discoveries she has made of Christ-followers of the past.

Passionate Prayer 30DJ. I can’t talk enough of how this book and the insights to the Psalms and David’s heart has helped me converse with God in new and wonderful ways. A powerful prayer enhancer. Before reading, my prayers were dull and repetitive, seemed to always be asking for something or someone. Now I can just worship God, dwell on His promises and learn from David’s heart how to bring the good, bad and ugly before my Lord. My heart can rejoice even though I am in midst of deep trials over health and family issues.
Sandy CA, Amazon Book Review
Passionate Prayer 30DJ. I am a fan of all of Catherine Martin’s books, but Passionate Prayer has been especially helpful to me. I have struggled for years to have a consistent prayer life. I have been intimidated by prayer, unsure of what to pray about, and confused about how prayer is a part of God’s plan. Well, this book has helped me to enjoy prayer. When Catherine talks about prayer, you cannot help but feel excited. Instead of a duty to be performed, Catherine paints a vivid picture of prayer as an intimate, ongoing conversation with the God who cares about you personally. I always learn something from Catherine’s books. So many devotionals out there are “devotional lites” – a few pithy sayings with a Bible verse tacked on for good measure. Not Catherine’s books! Her teaching is challenging and insightful, and her enthusiasm for God and His Word is contagious. If you want to become excited about prayer, read this book!
