The thing we can't afford to miss: With Peter Greer

from The H2 Leadership Podcast · host Stay Forth

Leaders have SO much on their plates, that we often don't make time for prayer. After studying extraordinary kingdom leaders, Peter Greer is convinced prayer is one of THE great practices of amazing leaders. Peter shares insights from his book on prayer and highlights the prayer habits of extraordinary leaders. They also explore the obstacles that leaders face in engaging in prayer and the need to prioritize prayer in busy lives. Peter emphasizes the value of wasting time in prayer and the impact it can have on intimacy with God. They discuss the importance of shaping cultures of prayer and offer practical recommendations for personal prayer practices. Instead of just talking about prayer we leave you with a guided prayer time at the end.   About Peter Greer Prior to joining Hope International, Peter worked internationally as a micro-finance advisor in Cambodia, technical advisor for Self-Help Development Foundation in Zimbabwe, and managing director for Urwego Community Bank in Rwanda. He received a B.S. in international business from Messiah College and an MPP from Harvard’s Kennedy School. As an advocate for the Church’s role in missions and alleviating extreme poverty, Peter has been a speaker at a number of conferences, and he has been featured by Christianity Today, World, Forbes, CNN, and RELEVANT. He has also written The Spiritual Danger of Doing Good (with Anna Haggard, 2013), Mission Drift (with Chris Horst, 2014; selected as a 2015 Book Award Winner from Christianity Today), Entrepreneurship for Human Flourishing (with Chris Horst, 2014), Stop Helping Us (2014), Watching Seeds Grow (with his son Keith, 2014), The Giver and the Gift (with David Weekley, 2015), 40/40 Vision (with Greg Lafferty, 2015), Created to Flourish (with Phil Smith, 2016), The Board and the CEO (with David Weekley, 2017), and Rooting for Rivals (with Chris Horst, 2018).
