The Prayer Experiment Lab Manual

I agree with Jay Dennis that praying the prayer of Jabez "could change your world." I have read the book twice. Dennis gives excellent, down to earth examples of the power of this prayer in his life and the life of countless others. It is an excellent exposition of the biblical text without sounding like it. Every pastor should read it for encouragement, if not for the wonderful sermonic material. But more than anything, reading the book and praying the prayer will change your world. We have used it for a 90 DAYS OF PRAYER emphasis in our church. The results are life-changing. Marilyn Jeffcoat has done an admirable job of taking the work of a gifted speaker and making it readable. Ted W. Fuson, Pastor, Culpeper Baptist Church

This is one of the best books I have ever read in my life. If you want a book to change your prayer life and outlook on God, I recommend you read this book.

Jay Dennis does an outstanding job of illustrating just what God can accomplish if we just allow Him to! His honestly is refreshing as he shows how he struggles as a pastor and a Christian with excerpts from his personal journals. Having prayed the Prayer of Jabez myself, I can attest to the fact that powerful things can happen to expand the Kingdom of God. The key is wanting to be used. I love this book and I think others will, too. It's encouraging, humorous, and as real is it gets.

The prayer of Jabez, tucked away in the deep forest of scripture, is a powerful prayer that can change people, churches, and entire communities. Jay Dennis, senior pastor of First Baptist Church at the Mall in Lakeland, FL, takes the reader on the spiritual journey with him and the FBC@TM community as they pray this prayer together and set out in faith to pursue the calling of God for their church to reach the community through the purchase of an entire abandoned shopping mall and converting the mall to a ministry. Having seen the results first hand, this book will be a huge encouragement to pastors who are seeking fresh strength to push their churches to the next level.
