POWER EVANGELISM & PRAYER EVANGELISM FELLOWSHIP OF PRAYER STRATEGISTS BIBLIOGRAPHY By Liz Adleta

BRIDGES FOR THE GOSPEL Silk Road Pilgrimage, Pilgrim David, 2012: Wide Margin, Gloucester, UK. Excellent book to help us learn to look for redemptive analogies in the cultures to whom we minister. On the journey of life, none of us know what is around the next bend. All of us need guidance and wisdom from the One who knows our final destination and how to get there. This book takes us on two journeys: one is a physical journey, through the lands of Central Asia and the Caucasus, but on the way, we also find ourselves on a journey of spiritual discovery. In the course of conversations with people along the Silk Road, our eyes are opened to new truths that we might not have noticed but are actually all around us. We will discover that, for the one who has eyes to see, our cultures and some of our traditions, like circumcision or the paying of kalym —and even the carpets under our feet! —can act as signposts on the way to the Mountain of God.

Wimber also introduced these views in the world famous course, MC510 “Signs, Wonders, and Church Growth” to Fuller Seminary in the early 1980’s.

Prayer Evangelism: How to Change the Spiritual Climate Over Your Home, Neighborhood and City, Ed Silvoso, 2000: Chosen Books, Bloomington, MN. As a result of the growing worldwide prayer movement, powerful changes have taken place in the church and in scattered cities’ transformations beyond anything imaginable only a few years ago. Of the revelations to come out of this movement, perhaps the most dramatic and promising is the rediscovery of biblical principles for changing the spiritual climate over entire cities and regions. Fulfillment of the Great Commission is no longer a distant hope but rather a fast-approaching reality for a worldwide church that will take hold of and use the biblical principles for changing cities as described in Prayer Evangelism. Silvoso shares his heart and his passion for reaching cities the way the early church did it: the whole church modeling the whole gospel to the whole city through prayer and prayerful evangelism.
