What People Are Saying

“Scripture is God’s way of initiating a conversation; prayer is our response—and in Praying the Scriptures for Your Life, Jodie Berndt invites us into the dialogue on everything from strengthening our marriage and family relationships, to dealing with fear and anxiety, to discovering what to do in the face of unanswered prayer. This book is a powerful companion for our prayer life!”

Mark Batterson, New York Times bestselling author of The Circle Maker and lead pastor of National Community Church

“As a new mom, I so appreciated having one of Jodie Berndt’s previous books to guide me in praying for my babies! Now I’m thankful for this book, as Jodie beautifully lays out the Scriptures to encourage my own prayer life and walk with the Lord.”

Mary Kate Robertson, social media voice and blogger at The Little DuckWife

“Jodie Berndt is the mentor and friend we all long to have. In this book, she ushers us into the presence of God and teaches us to stay there as she gives us deep theology in a practical, inspiring, and truly comforting way. Like a counselor, she touches on every part of our hearts as she leads us to God’s truth and points us to the way to pray through our deepest needs and longings.

Alyssa Joy Bethke, author of Satisfied and host of The Real Life Podcast

“Prayer is such a powerful tool in our lives, but as Jodie Berndt reminds us, it is not a one-way conversation, with most of us doing the talking and asking. Praying the Scriptures for Your Life is a great tool to draw each of us closer to God, especially in these uncertain times. As you pause to pray over the next thirty-one days, you will see God’s provision and power work miracles in your life. God’s Word is alive and active and sharper than any double-edged sword and is meant to draw us closer to the One who desires an intimate relationship with us.”

Anne Neilson, artist and author of Angels: Devotions and Art to Encourage, Refresh, and Inspire

I love the way she combines gentle inspiration with practical examples deeply rooted in biblical truth. This is a powerful and necessary book.”

Jennifer Dukes Lee, author of Growing Slow and It’s All Under Control

“If you long for your prayer life to be more than just a shopping list of personal requests and a few quick “Bless them, Lord” sentiments for others, Praying the Scriptures for Your Life is just the resource you need. Packed with practical ways to deepen your walk with God, Jodie’s book will guide you to an enriched prayer time as you not only become resolved to make connecting with God a priority but are shown just how to do so. Highly recommended!”

As you abide in God, he will transform your life and through you bear much fruit for his kingdom. God will give you the ability to live out the fullness of all he has created you for. I pray that you’ll read this book, reflect on its truths, and respond in such a way that you will live out the great destiny God planned you for. And be sure to share this book with others so they too will be blessed by God.“
