Prayer is the lifeblood of the Christian faithbut many followers of Jesus still struggle to make prayer part of their daily lives. In Pray First, bestselling author and pastor Chris Hodges shows us how to make prayer a first response instead of a last resort.

Even though prayer is foundational to the Christian life, many are intimidated or uncertain about how to talk to God. Prayer feels quaint and old-fashioned to some, sacred and uncomfortable to others. Its not a lack of inspirationtheres plenty of that. And its not that we dont realize prayer is importantwe know it is. So, whats the issue?

Pastor Chris Hodges has spent years studying the prayers of the Bible and the models of prayer that the scriptures provide for Christians. Now, he shares the teachings and methods hes used to successfully help hundreds of thousands of people understand how to spend time in conversation with Godand enjoy every minute.

  • Take a journey through the prayers of the Bible, which reveal how to make prayer more personal and powerful
  • Learn about fasting, an often overlooked but powerful discipline thats a vital companion to prayer
  • Follow proven, biblically grounded methods for making prayer a priority, not an afterthought
  • Written in the personable, relatable, and always biblically based style that has become Hodgess hallmark, Pray First is a revolutionary how-to manual for anyone seeking a more dynamic, intimate prayer life with God.

    Many people believe in the power of prayer but lack the confidence to pray boldly. In his new book, Pray First, Pastor Chris Hodges takes an in-depth look at the kinds of prayers that touch the heart of God. This book will spiritually motivate and equip readers to get to know God more intimately through a rich and meaningful life of prayer.

    SAMUEL RODRIGUEZ, NEW SEASON LEAD PASTOR

    "I have been greatly inspired by the life of Chris Hodges, especially his prayer life and his emphasis of prayer at Church of the Highlands. In Pray First, Pastor Chris seeks to dismantle the obstacles to prayer that we create in our hearts and minds. This book aims to empower readers and set in motion a life where prayer is a lifestyle and meaningful conversations with God are daily. I would wholeheartedly recommend this book to anyone looking to grow in their relationship with God and being more active in prayer with all areas of their life.

    CHAD VEACH, PASTOR, ZOE CHURCH LA; AUTHOR, WORRIED ABOUT EVERYTHING BECAUSE I PRAY ABOUT NOTHING

    Is there anything more important in our relationship with God than a life of prayer? I dont think so.... I am so grateful for Chris Hodges and the book Pray First! It has inspired me and given me a renewed heart and vision for my relationship with prayer and, ultimately, with God. Through the highs and lows of this life, we were created to walk and talk with our Creator. This book is the North Star pointing us and guiding us to a fulfilled life of prayer.

    CHRIS TOMLIN, ARTIST, SONGWRITER, AUTHOR

    When I think of the words Pray First I think of Pastor Chris Hodges. He has lived this message for thirty-nine years and it has deeply impacted our church in Miami and countless communities around the globe. The prayer models shared within will bring practical guidance to your conversations with God and his wisdom on corporate and personal prayer will awaken your heart to yearn for all that awaits in Gods presence. Forever grateful for this life message!
