Forty-five years of one prayer: "Lord, teach me to pray."
Prayer led in all 50 states and 58 nations. Today, Bob covers businesses in prayer and teaches leaders to pray with confidence and expectation.
In 1980, a few months after coming to faith, Bob Perry heard the Lord say: Begin your life of prayer.
He began the next spring — two hours a morning, five days a week, with a handful of desperate men in their twenties. He never stopped.
Forty-five years later, he has led prayer on six continents, planted churches in the former Soviet Union, coordinated a 70,000-person stadium gathering, prayed over Air Force One at a President's request, and trained more than 100,000 people to pray.
He walks about 34,000 steps a day. He prays most of them.
"I would see every believer as a 10 in prayer — from the Father's eyes."
Bob founded Workplace Prayer — a team covering businesses in daily prayer, by name. Not one man's hour a month, but a whole team at your back on the field you can't see.
