Encourage Him to Talk to God

Prayer is one of the most important parts of a close relationship with God, but it can be hard to explain that to a child. Bestselling author and Bible teacher Jim George will help boys understand what prayer really is, how to pray effectively, and what they can pray for.

Boys will learn to pray for

• a good attitude
• family and friends
• smart decisions
• a spirit of courage
• freedom from trouble and worry
• God's plan for their future

Each chapter contains relevant Scripture, fill-in-the-blanks sections designed to aid young readers in retaining the verses they just read, and a sample prayer for boys to pray.

Set him on the path of a lifetime habit of surrendering to God in prayer.
