How many people who are spiritually dead choose to accept Christ as their Lord and Savior? How can people who have sin inscribed on their hearts seek after God? How can people who have proud hearts humble themselves to confess their sins and ask forgiveness? It is impossible for mankind, but all things are possible for God. This treatise on prayer for the lost addresses their great plight, and how to offer fervently effective prayer with great confidence in the LORD God. He alone can change hard hearts and draw them inexorably to Jesus Christ. The key is praying through and claiming verses God has given regarding His changing of hearts. Being born again is not by the will of the flesh nor the efforts of men. Only by the will of God can lost people become found. Christ said that sinful people do not seek for Him or choose Him, but He seeks them and chooses them. Discover the benefits of praying according to God’s will and claiming His promises. God uses the prayers of His loving and caring saints to work in the hearts of lost sheep. Child of God, be challenged to radically change your prayer life. Within this work, additional books on prayer are recommended to enlarge your sphere of influence and broaden your understanding of God’s world. Be more in tune with God’s heart for lost souls as you pray for “all men”. Be assured that God hears the “fervent effectual prayers” of His “righteous” people. Be greatly encouraged.

We live in a visual culture. Today, people increasingly rely upon visuals to help them understand new and difficult concepts. The rise and stunning popularity of the Internet infographic has given us a new way in which to convey data, concepts and ideas. But the visual portrayal of truth is not a novel idea. Indeed, God himself used visuals to teach truth to his people. The tabernacle of the Old Testament was a visual representation of man's distance from God and God's condescension to his people. Each part of the tabernacle was meant to display something of man's treason against God and God's kind response. Likewise, the sacraments of the New Testament are visual representations of man's sin and God's response. Even the cross was both reality and a visual demonstration. As teachers and lovers of sound theology, Challies and Byers have a deep desire to convey the concepts and principles of systematic theology in a fresh, beautiful and informative way. In this book, they have made the deepest truths of the Bible accessible in a way that can be seen and understood by a visual generation.

The retelling and illustration of this parable is faithful to Scripture, as found in Luke 15; 4-6 NKJV. But it contains many surprises as the Lord God is wont to bring. The setting is abstract because the story could occur anywhere; its truth is universal, sovereign and timeless. At the same time, the story is personal, told from Wirth's own relationship with the Lord. His character, movements and words embody the nature of Jesus, as she knows him and desires to share this story with her audience, the adult and child. En route to a cooler, green pasture, the Good Shepherd leads his six jolly sheep, stopping to give them unique blessings. A rain storm descends and Malinda is lost. As God would have it, her rescue is sure and gives Him the glory. The rainbow remains as His covenant promise that He will not leave them or ever forsake them. The relationship of the Good Shepherd is clear. He trusts God to answer his prayers for guidance on the journey and for help in finding his lost sheep; then he thanks God for finding her in a most unusual way. The Good Shepherd and all his sheep rejoice. But God has still more blessings to give; more wonderful provisions come. The illustrations are freely-cut paper collages; correspondingly, the writing style is free-verse. The book is charismatic; it carries the audience up in the Spirit. Of the six sheep, five are called by the middle names of Wirth's grandchildren: Frances, Philip, Redmond, Murray, Liam. The sixth, Malinda, is the name of a daughter of friends. This story is dedicated to them all. This book could well be an encouragement to pray for the lost. It could also be a thank-you, if you know someone who was lost and then became found by the Lord.
