The Circle Maker Bible Study Participant's Guide: Praying Circles Around Your Biggest Dreams and Greatest Fears

Using it for women study group

I really enjoyed this book. The author kept my attention all the way through. Was sad that I finished it so quickly.

This has really improved my focus and passion for daily prayer, in what I believe will be a sustainable pattern. God's already confirmed that with several answers as if to say, "I've been waiting for you to engage with me like this!"

Did this as a class at church. Made a pact to pray nightly with another woman in the class. We have kept on praying nightly long after the class ended. It has been wonderful to end our nights with prayer, placing all our worries in God's hands. We sleep better, we have seen prayers answered and experienced such amazing growth in faith. We still pray the same three circles and for other things as they arise, what started as a 15 minute session has gone as long as 3 hours, usually an hour every night. It has been a phenomenal experience. I encourage everyone to do this study and read the book.

My small group went through this study and found it very engaging and practical. We did the 21 day prayer challenge and many of the prayers we prayed came to fruition, which has been a great motivation to keep us all praying for each other and through difficult situations. I would actually say that this DVD (and the book) have changed my life, and the lives of those in my group, for the better in a very short time. This is not a "prosperity gospel" series as I had feared, but is rather a Biblically-based study on the promises of prayer. I can actually see myself going through this study again in the future to quickly remind myself of the power and necessity of prayer in the Christian walk.

This is a good companion to the book and video lessons for The Circle Maker. I think other people in the class are getting more out of the guide than I am, as I am struggling just to keep up with the reading (working full time, and a slow reader), so am not using the participant's guide to its full advantage. The guide is helpful during group discussions.

We did this as a bible study together at my church along with the book and DVD teachings. I found that really the point was made in the first chapter then he was just trying to build up our expectation to receive and believe for the same response from God in what you are believing for.

Excellent work on Prayer. I enjoyed the Jewish legend of Honi and the many examples of faith we can glean from his bold prayer. Lots of narrative on placing our own faith in God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. Practical teachings to apply daily in our faith journey. The very best book I have ever read on prayer.
