“Remember that the apostle Paul compares the Christian life to running a race? Think of Barb as your track coach! Barb is one of the wisest, most humble prayer teachers in the country. I have seen the extraordinary fruits of her teaching in the Carmichael church. You will see the fruits in your own life and in your own church if you and a group of your friends will agree to study Your Journey to a Prayerful Life.”
—from the Foreword by Martha Grace Reese, author of the Unbinding the Gospel Series
