Publisher's Synopsis
Do you feel like everything depends on you? That you must grind and hustle to have a flourishing life? If so, it's no surprise that stress, anxiety, and burdens may be weighing you down. And there's no doubt that you probably struggle to pray—or believe that prayer does much in your life. What if it wasn't all on you? What if God wanted to not only bear your burdens, but change you and work on your behalf as you engage with him and labor in ministry? In Pour Out Your Heart, pastor Jeremy Linneman reveals a deeper, more vibrant prayer life that could be yours. Where some approach prayer in a one-sided way, Linneman approaches prayer as both communion with God and an act of boldness seeking God's transformative power to work mightily in our world. Throughout the book, you will: Rediscover your identity as a beloved child of the Father and learn to "pour out your heart like water" to him (Lam. 2:19) Develop a life of inner joy and peace through contemplative, childlike prayer Learn how to find fresh strength and faith for life's difficulties through bold, intercessory prayer Explore ancient prayer rhythms and resources that help you face life's challenges We were not created to do life in our own strength. We can see the transformative power of God's presence at work, in our own lives and in our world. The way is simple: you pour out your heart in the presence of our loving, all-powerful Father, and he pours back his love and power into you.
