Your 100 Day Prayer
John I. Snyder

Thomas Nelson (September 13, 2011)

Anything worth having in this life is worth waiting for and worth striving for. Unlike the world, though, Christians are called to a different pursuit when they survey their dreams, desires, and needs. Instead of an indulgent wish list, Christians are called to live a transformed life where they become more like Christ through the journey of striving after God’s will. In a time when both the world and even some Christians preach instant gratification, Your 100 Day Prayer offers another path—one of transformation.
