I first met Catherine Martin when she was kind enough to invite me to be the speaker [at her church] in Palm Desert, California. It was a beautiful spring morning. We immediately hit it off and found ourselves laughing and praying our way through the day. Something very powerful happens when you pray with a sister in Christ. I could sense the passion of her heart as she prayed that the women attending would open their hearts to Christ.

In Passionate Prayer you will share in Catherine's wellspring of prayer experience from a woman who has walked with God for many years. She wisely states, "Prayer is God's prescription for a troubled heart. The more you pray, the more you experience God's peace.” I have found this to be true in my life and I'm sure you will find it to be true in yours. May the pages you read today jumpstart your prayer life and turn it into consistent, honest conversation with the Prince of Peace, Jesus Christ.
