“Faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see. This is what the ancients were commended for.” —Hebrews 11:1-2. Like the Bible heroes named in Hebrews 11, you’ll face hardships that leave you with no choice but to surrender completely to your heavenly Father. For those trials, Praying like a Kingdom Hero will guide you to seek God’s providence and peace with a heart of worship, wisdom, and willingness to follow His plan for your life. In this companion to Kingdom Heroes, Dr. Tony Evans will show you how to pray like those praised by God. He’ll help you humbly approach the Lord with your fears and desires, seeking a spirit of Christ-centered endurance that will carry you to victory. When the winds of chaos blow turmoil into your life, God remains your perfect refuge. Praying like a Kingdom Hero encourages you to seek God through conversation with Him, confident that He’ll enact His perfect will through life’s imperfect circumstances.

Sproul argues that prayer has a vital place in the life of the Christian and calls us to come before God's presence with joy and hope.

Sproul offers succinct answers to important questions often asked by Christians and thoughtful inquirers.

A Hero's Prayer is the first in a series of five 18-page picture books for boys ages 4 to 8 that will help young boys understand their identity in God and their relationship with Him.
