7. Significant Prayer

Prayer may very will be the most important principle or all. Of course, prayer is more a practice of the church than a principle of growth. However, the point is that without prayer, there is apt to be little or no growth at all.

What is somewhat ironic about this fact is that even though prayer is such an integral part of a growing church, few books have been written on the specific relationship of prayer and new work growth. Without exception, the practice of significant prayer pervades every other principle.
