Draw the Circle Bible Study Guide: Taking the 40 Day Prayer Challenge

Have your prayers become stagnant? Do you long to see God move in fresh ways? Are you ready to move to new places in your walk with God? If so, it's time to take the 40-day prayer challenge...

In this five-session video study (DVD/digital video sold separately), bestselling author and pastor Mark Batterson reveals how taking up this prayer challenge will not only change the way you pray today but also dramatically impact the rest of your life. This study will help you:

• Draw your prayer circle around the things in your life where you want to see God's work.
• Form a broader prayer circle with other believers in Christ.
• Challenge yourself to persistently depend on God.
• Witness the miraculous results in your life, your church, your community, and your world that only God can bring.

While this challenge won't be easy, and you will certainly experience setbacks along the way, as you pray through you can be assured that God will come through for you in new and exciting ways. Miracles that happen in your life decades from now will trace their origin back to this season of prayer, and breakthroughs that occur will become generational blessings that will live on long after your time on earth is over.

Join with the more than half a million people who have already accepted this 40-day challenge to pray like never before.

The Draw the Circle Study Guide includes video discussion questions, personal reflection questions, and daily devotional readings for each of the 40 days in the challenge.

Sessions include:

1. Drawing a Circle
2. Dream Big
3. Pray Hard
