My hectic lifestyle and rigorous schedule allow me to write very few book endorsements. This one, however, was a complete no-brainer. The best books, by far, are those through which elements of the life, character, and anointing of the writer are somehow transferred to the reader. Impartation and revelation trump information alone—every time. Read Adventures in Prayer and learn from the best! 

Each day has a simple but inspiring personal story. Elements of her journey, character, and anointing will transform your prayer life. Learn how to:

  • Set aside a special place to meet with God
  • See God’s fingerprints in every story of your life
  • Develop a prayer habit of listening to God
  • Respond to God’s message to you

Mary Jo not only knows how to meet and hear God, she also has led hundreds on a more powerful prayer journey.


Adventures in Prayer is a must-read for those hungry to expand their prayer lives. Refreshing. Challenging. Inspiring. When I finished, I said, “Wow, God, thank You for this volume of prayer gems.” You, too, will be touched in unexpected ways, no doubt, as you let the Holy Spirit spotlight special passages for you to ponder and act upon. Over the years, I have counted on Mary Jo’s faithfulness in praying for me and with me. One of my favorite places in all the world is her personal prayer room—her tent of meeting. She not only knows how to meet and hear God but also has led hundreds of individuals on a more powerful prayer journey. I believe this book will encourage thousands more in their prayer walks.
Read, pray, and be blessed.

Without a doubt,
Mary Jo is a voice for this generation about
the topic of prayer.




What I love about Adventures in Prayer is that I would read it even if I didn’t know the author. Because each chapter has a simple story involving real people. Then it reveals a great truth from God’s Word about our relationship with Him and His interaction with us. Without a doubt, Mary Jo is a voice for this generation about the topic of prayer. Her heart shines through as she writes about listening to and speaking with God. Prayer and worship walk side-by-side in this wonderful book, in the same way that they have in her life. The Lord has truly blessed me by letting me know her and learn so much about prayer from serving with her in ministry. She and this book are a gift to the body of Christ
