The Bible specifically calls on church leaders to guide this essential form of corporate worship, but it can be challenging to pray boldly and confidently in front of others.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis practical, step-by-step guide was created to help pastors and church leaders pray thoughtfully and biblically in public. Through seven guiding principles, Pat Quinn illustrates how to lead prayers of adoration, confession, and supplication to God, and covers the history of public prayer in Scripture. He also includes elegant, reverent, gospel-centered examples from the Latin Liturgy, John Calvin, the Puritans, John Wesley, and others, as well as many examples of his own congregational prayers. Pastors and church leaders will learn to glorify God more passionately, effectively intercede for the church and the world, and find joy--not fear--in praying publicly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eForeword by Kevin DeYoung\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eExplores the rich history of public prayer in the Christian church\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eGives specific examples of prayers from the Latin Liturgy, John Calvin, the Westminster Directory, the Puritans, John Wesley, and Terry L.
