Resurrect the dead language of prayer.
The title Gangster Prayer is not religious, it won’t appease or even applaud the legalistic or even fluffy Christian— it’s honest. It’s real. It’s descriptive. It’s convicting. While reading scriptures about prayer, it became clear that God wants to do more for us than we could even attempt to ask—we simply have to apply His principles. The Spirit of God is calling out every believer to champion for themselves the power that prayer will produce in their own lives and in the body of Christ! Gangster Prayer won’t teach you how to pray, because that has distracted the church long enough. Instead, it will help reveal the heart behind a believing prayer and put the focus back on who we are praying to, instead of on what we are praying for. It’s time to get serious about prayer.
“The believer who doesn’t pray doesn’t hinder God’s power— Just God’s power at work in their lives.”

“Isn’t it sad how extremely passionate some people can be for a lie, while at the same time, us Christians can be extremely lazy with the truth? That is why Gangster Prayer by my friend, Autumn Miles, is such a timely message. Read this book. Be encouraged by it. Be challenged by it. Then, share it with someone else.”
