The Gift of Prophetic Encouragement: Hearing the Words of God for Others

by Debbie Kitterman, Wayne Cordeiro (Foreword by)

Overview

Change the World around You through a Lifestyle of Encouragement

From the beginning God has been communicating with mankind, just as he did when he talked with Adam and Eve in the Garden. Yet far too many people believe that talking with God is extraordinary when, in fact, it should be an ordinary part of our Christian life. Jesus modeled this two-way conversation. He also embraced a lifestyle of encouragement, changing the atmosphere and lives of people everywhere he went. We can do the same.

Full of powerful testimonies and practical application, this book will help you break out of your comfort zone and embrace a lifestyle of encouraging others—just as Jesus did. You will learn how to deepen your relationship with God, open a direct line of communication with him, and share his words with others.
