LEARNING PRAYER THRU THE FUN OF A NOVEL: "THE PRAY-ERS": Author / Speaker Mark S Mirza states, "I want people to enjoy a novel and at the end of the book to realize that they have learned how to pray through the example of the three historical figures in this book: Epaphras from the first century Christian Church, Brother Alexander Rich from the period of the American Civil War, and Coach Dale Riley of the current era." Mark's desire to write "The Pray-ers" was impacted by his favorite writers including all of Joel Rosenberg's novels, Jerry Jenkins "Precinct 11" series, Tim LaHaye and Craig Parshall's "Joshua Jordan" series, Tim LaHaye's "Babylon Rising" series, and C. S. Lewis and his famous "Narnia" series. Mark also enjoys the work of Frederick Forsyth and John Lescroat. He especially liked the way John Lescroat writes completely different books with the characters from his previous books.Videos
