Let me start by saying that I am a huge fan of Mark Batterson. I have heard him speak several times and read another one of his books, In a Pit With a Lion on a Snowy Day. I loved that book but never could get through his second book. With that said, I was definitely excited to read through this book and may even try his second book again some time.
The Circle Maker. I've read books on prayer so I am not sure what I really expected from this book. Mark Batterson is a great story teller and so from the very beginning he had me hooked into the story. But like most books in the christian realm I was waiting to see scripturally where he would go. I am going to have to say that I was extremely pleased with this book. In fact it has rocked my world. I have begun to share some of the principles and nuggets of truth that I found in this book with friends, family, and my church. This is a book that will push people to dream big, pray hard, and think long. This book does not teach a "name it claim it" philosophy. It focuses heavily on God's timing and God's will. This book has stirred my heart and my prayer life. Make sure you pick up a copy today. AMAZON
