PIT Crews Make A Difference |
|
|
|
|
In her classic book The Prayer Saturated Church
--for pastors and prayer leaders who are serious about helping their
church’s current “prayer ministry” grow into a dynamic “house of
prayer”--Cheryl Sacks introduces the concept of “PIT Crew.” This stands
for a Personal Intercessory Team of volunteers who are committed to a
specific prayer focus. In her 28-plus years of working alongside her
husband, Hal, in encouraging and equipping men and women church members
in prayer, they have challenged many churches to develop multiple PIT
Crews, involving literally hundreds of the church members.

"When you fast . . ." —Matthew 6:16
I was out of answers. I kept thinking of different possible scenarios,
but no idea seemed capable of resolving all the pieces of the problem.
Something had to change, and I was pretty sure it was the whole
situation.

Engaging a Congregation to Pray |
|
|
|
|
In the May 2005 issue of Pray!, Daniel Henderson correctly
asserted that you cannot guilt people into participating in church
prayer efforts—only the Holy Spirit can nudge, woo or call them to
this. While that is true, there are some things you can do and some
principles you can follow that can be a runway to allow more prayer to
take flight.
