Prayers That Changed History~Tricia Goyer


     Prayers That Changed History written by Tricia Goyer is a great book about prayer.  Tricia states that she wrote this book to: highlight a historical person and a moment of prayer, to teach kids how to pray, and to discuss prayers through the very words of the people highlighted.  Her book uses historical people like Florence Nightingale, Constantine and Martin Luther, to show how their prayers and or action changed history.
     Each of the chapters in the book is broken down into different parts about a different person:  first they tell us about the person, then you have something to think about, in his own words, how they changed history, in the bible and finally your life.  What a great way to see the power of prayer, how others used prayer, how God changed them and how we can use this in our lives!  
From the back of the book:  You’ve read their stories in history books, and you’ve heard about the amazing things they did to change the world.  But one part of the story is often left out:  each one of them wouldn’t have accomplished what they did without prayer.  In this book from bestselling author Tricia Goyer, the stories of twenty-five notable people are presented along with the major prayer that changed their lives, and changed history.  Following each historical example is a biblical story that ties to that person’s life and actions, as well as ways you can use the power of prayer in your life.  because God isn’t done changing the world yet, and he would love to use you to make history.
