I saw this book in the airport and I wanted to throw it in the garbage.
I have no idea what the inside says so I may be COMPLETELY wrong on this but from the looks of it, it was suggesting that God is some sort of vending machine at our immediate disposal for our own carnal desires.
How do you pray?

Seriously man, I would prob feel the same way lol. Although I might want to check out an excerpt. But I still think you have to be careful how you market. Let’s at least throw them into the garbage once though for fun.
Thanks for the RT bro!

haha thanks Maddox!
God responds to prayers full of faith in His Word. It’s best to have the Word hidden in your heart so that in time of need it just flows out of you. However, new believers are not always as grounded in the Word as the more mature. Having prayers for specific needs in a book so you can refer to them and speak prayers, with Word specific words, would be helpful. Of course, ya have to believe that God honors His Word. (-: Therefore, I would not throw it in the garbage. Someone less mature may purchase it, read it and pray it when they need it. Whaddaya think?
i dig it Bobby
sometimes i find myself looking out of my bubble too much so i blog it so that bubble will be popped and see things through many other eyes
appreciate the thoughts and honesty bro!
If someone wants to use this book and isn’t a believer, I pray it leads toward their salvation – they don’t know God yet. But if a believer has this book?!?!?! What is wrong with us?!?! Does the Church know their God so little that they have to have a book pray for them?
love it Jamie!
