Rating:  Summary: Only the Beginning! Review: This book isn't just a story. It's history in the making! If you wonder if there is a God out there... If you wonder if he ever listens to the puny little prayers of our insignificant planet... Or if you are a believer and want to deepen your relationship with your Creator, this book will give you alot to think about, and show you a way to join in the story itself and become part of history. Reading "Red Moon Rising" is inspiring, thought provoking, and challenging. It's the story of the beginnings of a movement of God as seen by the author, Pete Greig. It's a prayer movement without doubt, but a prayer movement with hands and feet; a prayer movement come out of the prayer closet! And it's no ordinary prayer we are reading about, but prayer that is transforming the petioners into their own answers to prayer! I would recommend this book to anyone. Whether just beginning on a spiritual journey or whether a seasoned traveler, "Red Moon Rising" is a book that can certainly guide you onto some of the most important paths you will take. It's an invitation to join in the adventure.
Rating:  Summary: Gets under your skin...makes you move Review: This book was amazing...from the very first chapter through the end...not only is this book an amazing testament of the things that God is doing in our midst today...it is also a tool for those of us that have been waiting...this book got me off of my 'Spiritual Rear-End' and put me on my knees...it is a must read for anybody that has the slightest desire for God's Kingdom...
Rating:  Summary: Reminded Review: This is not just a book about cool things Christians are up to. It's a reminder of what happens if we let ourselves hear God's heartbeat and allow ourselves to be consumed by His agenda.
Reading this book made me feel more connected to my dreams than ever before as I read about things I've seen in my heart for years, but wondered if I would ever see with my eyes. It reminded me to continue to dream, and to be confident that as I persue God's heart I will hold those dreams in my hands as reality. It reminded me that I'm not alone, that I'm in one tiny part of the big picture of God being revealed throughout the earth. Everyone should read this book.
Rating:  Summary: Only five stars are available? Review: What a terrific read this proved to be for me! It came on the recommendation of a good friend who suggested it because we are on the journey towards 24/7 intercessory worship here in our own city. I appreciate the authors not pulling any punches; there is grit in this story. Hands are getting dirty and there are some disappointments for these prayer pioneers... but they are unapologetic nor are they self-serving in offering glimspes of the costs and sacrifices in their obedience. And what is also clearly depicted in this nonfiction account of these prayer rooms cropping up around the world is that God is building this: opening doors, giving provision and the faith to continue forward to encourage and bless others who are hearing the call to night and day prayer. Get the book, you will not be disappointed. We have our own prayer initiative underway locally (http://www.charlottepraying.com) and it was tremendously encouraging to read how others are responding to this call to minister to God via sustained worship and intercession. As you read this, don't be surprised to find your eyes lifted to heaven and the whisper of Christ calling you to stand before Him in a similar way in your own city.
Rating:  Summary: Red Moon Rising, Hughly inspiring Review: WOW, this book, the stories, the passion, WOW! I have been so encouraged, I have heard part of these stories and this really helps me to see the bigger picture, Man!! God is so vast!! God has been reviving my soul with four books, red moon rising,Desiring God, blue like jazz, and the bible. Too love; with passion; the small part I have in the big picture.I love it cause it glorifies Him, and brings me great Joy! That Joy is made complete by seeing others find the joy of knowning Jesus! I am so amped! I love when a book comes along that can connect you to so much of what is doing, what a blessing to feel even closer to the movement of God around the world! COME ON!
