Ultimate Reliance

BREAKTHROUGH PRAYER PRACTICES FOR LEADERS

By Sue Nilson Kibbey

The power of a Breakthrough Prayer Initiative brings significant spiritual impact for renewal and vitality — in the life of the congregation, to members of church leadership teams, and personally.

Author Sue Nilson Kibbey’s classic church leadership book, Ultimately Responsible, and her most recent release Flood Gates: Holy Momentum for a Fearless Church, are followed by this new resource that will strengthen the “flood gate” of your breakthrough prayer practices both collectively and individually.

In Ultimate Reliance, you’ll learn how adding breakthrough prayer to congregational and church leadership groups can change everything, transforming what might have become routine administrative work into a God-led spiritual adventure. This powerful, five-week study includes discussion questions, application ideas, plus a breakthrough prayer practice for each chapter. Five introductory video breakthrough prayer stories—one to introduce each chapter—are also available on DVD. Together the book and DVD video stories will move breakthrough prayer throughout your setting and deep into your own faith journey. Ideal for use with your church council, board, leadership team, class, small group, or entire congregation—wherever Christians long to build breakthrough prayer practices as the ultimate foundation for everything else.
