  • “[Prayercast] exists to activate world-changing prayer for the sake of the lost. We believe passionately and biblically that the only way the multitudes around the world are going to be reached is if God moves. There’s nothing more powerful that we do to plead with the God of all power to move in people’s hearts around the world.”
  • “This is our gift to the Body of Christ around the world.”
  • “God has brought such a diverse group of people together, united in Christ with this passion for their own countries.”
  • Prayers for the Nations and World Religions
  • Chicago77 - Praying for the City
  • Love Muslims
  • “That is the heart of what we’re doing - people who may never go to west Africa and who may have never even heard of Burkina Faso - here they are, pleading that God would break through and save people whom He loves in Burkina Faso.”
  • “We’re going to continue to innovate and try to get these resources, not simply to resourced people around the world, but to truly lead multitudes and unite multitudes in the Body of Christ around the world in a massive scale pleading that God would break through and move in His power.”
  • “Love is why we pray for people we’ve never met.  It’s not our love, it’s God’s love for them.”
  • “When God’s people pray, He moves. When God’s people pray, they change.”
  • “I never knew what was going to happen plus two [days], but He laid out one day at a time, and I watched God do literally miraculous things on that trip.”
