Prayer meetings are no longer held at many churches and sparsely attended at others, and when held are often dry and uninteresting. Why? Lack of clear, biblical leadership has largely been the fault. It is hardly possible to over-estimate the value of the prayer-meeting, as it stands related to the life and usefulness of the Church of Christ. In fact, no other service can be compared with this in importance -for without a live prayer-meeting the church will be spiritually cold, the Sabbath services will be formal (or in some cases too informal), and the children will be fed with husks instead of provisions from the Master's table. In this book, Lewis Thompson beautifully and clearly offers solutions to the age-old complaints about prayer meetings. No more must prayer meetings be given a backseat in the list of priorities in churches today. In the chapters of this book, Thompson addresses topics such as The Importance of Prayer Meetings, How to Make Prayer-Meetings Interesting, Helps to Speaking in Public, Songs and Singing, How to Secure Prayer-Meeting Attendance, The Need for Preparation, Topics and Illustrations, Bible Readings, How to Keep the Prayer-Meetings Hot, and more.

Excerpt from The Prayer-Meeting and Its Improvement This book is designed as a go-between, between pastor and people, to call their combined attention to some hints and principles that would enlarge the efficiency of the prayer-meeting, and to assure those to whom public speaking is a burden, that their experience is common to the majority of mankind, and should give them no uneasiness, beyond spurring them on until they acquire the habit of extempore speech. If the prayer-meeting is to be more than a mere side-show to the church, if it is to rise into one of the great departments of successful Christian work, there must be as much thought, prayer and effort given to it, as to either of the Sabbath services or the Sabbath school. What is needed in many cases is such a method for its conduct, and such a hearty co-operation of all in that method, as shall make the prayer-meeting, both in interest and attendance, an undoubted success. May the Lord bless for good whatever of truth these chapters contain, and make them instrumental in stirring up the zeal of the churches to untiring labor and faithful prayer in the advancement of His cause. Go little book - if God shall be pleased to commission thee - from church to church as an evangelist in the cause of the Prayer-Meeting and its Improvement.
