A careful analysis of Bruce Wilkinson's best-selling book "The Prayer of Jabez."
From the back cover:
The meteoric rise in popularity of Bruce Wilkinson's compact book, THE PRAYER OF JABEZ, has taken the church, and the country, by storm. Having already sold millions of copies, it may become the best-selling Christian book of the last one hundred years.
In this book, pastor and author Gary Gilley takes issue with Wilkinson's message. He believes the message, although well meaning, is unbiblical and threatens to do incalculable damage to the church.
"A clear call for careful and precise biblical interpretation in these days of fuzzy thinking and feel-good theology. An important counter-balance to the popular, but misguided, bestseller." -Les Lofquist, Executive Director, IFCA International
"A timely, much needed, well-thought out, and biblically sound response to the prayer of Jabez cult that has been developed by Dr. Wilkinson's little book. I highly recommend it." -Dr. Thomas Ice, Executive Director, The Pre-Trib Research Center
"I agree with Pastor Gilley's conclusion. Unlike Bruce Wilkinson, he considers interpreting the Scriptures correctly a higher priority than winning the favor of people." -Dr. Richard Mayhue, Dean, The Master's Seminary
Gary E. Gilley has pastored at Southern View Chapel, Springfield, Illinois, since 1975. He is the author of the widely circulated publication, THINK ON THESE THINGS.
