For Ron & Patricia Owens, The Journey is a drink offering of adoration poured out to Jesus-the Rose of Sharon. With grateful hearts, the Owens commend to you the poetry, songs, and truths Christ has written on their hearts. May you be encouraged on your journey and drawn closer to Jesus each day. We are on a worship journey that begins with our "new birth." It's a journey that continues every day we're here on earth. It's a journey that will climax when we enter heaven's gate, There with every tongue and nation we will join in perfect praise. Ron and Patricia Owens have traveled the world for almost fifty years, gratefully serving where the Lord provides open doors. In North America and internationally, they have ministered in conferences, churches, seminaries, and colleges. Their focus includes Ron's preaching and teaching on the subjects of worship and revival as well as their joint ministry through music, composition, and authoring books. Ron writes most of the poetry for their songs, while Patricia writes and arranges the music. In addition to writing songs together, Ron has authored several biographies with additional titles in process.

You are not alone. This book sets out to empower you to soar with the eagles and take your prayers to a whole new level. Using Biblical, theological, historical, and personal viewpoints, each aspect of prayer is unraveled. Starting with the family altar, you will learn practical steps to use in your prayer life to give you hope, sustaining power, and preparedness for spiritual warfare and intercession. Just like the flight of the eagle, prayer allows us to soar with God to heights unknown to the natural man. Countless books have been written on prayer. "Soaring With The Eagles" is a call to the practice of prayer by someone who does it Blake Gideon is an active pastor who practices prayer. This book is the fruit of that practice It is not a call to endorse prayer but to enter into it. It is not a call to assent to truth but to act upon the truth you already have in hand. This book is more of an eclectic compilation of essays about various elements of prayer than a systematic study of prayer. Therefore, the reader can turn to any chapter and not feel completely lost. It can be used as a personal devotional, for a small group book study, or even for sermon or lesson preparation. Because these truths are Biblical, they will have application in whatever setting you may choose. Your struggle can be over. You can learn how to effectively increase your understanding and hunger for prayer today. You can grow in one of the most important aspects of the Christian life--prayer. You can soar with the eagles.
