Synopsis:

Prayer is a Powerful Weapon

Tony and Elizabeth Jordan have it all — great jobs, a beautiful daughter, and their dream house. But appearances can be deceiving. Their world is actually crumbling under the strain of a failing marriage. While Tony basks in his professional success and flirts with temptation, Elizabeth resigns herself to increasing bitterness. But their lives take an unexpected turn when Elizabeth meets her newest client, Miss Clara, a wise, older widow who challenges Elizabeth to start fighting for her family instead of fighting against her husband.
 From the award-winning creators of Fireproof and Courageous comes War Room, a compelling drama with humor and heart that explores the power that prayer can have over marriages, parenting, careers, friendships, and every other area of our lives.

Review:

Most people think ‘God helps those who help themselves’ is in the Bible. Listen, God helps those who have come to the end of themselves.

Oh my Lanta, this was a wild ride for me. I was crying for the MCs and the struggles they went through.

At the beginning of the book Elizabeth and Tony are married in the same house but it seems like they are worlds away. One day Elizabeth meets Clara who teaches her about her war room. From there Elizabeth becomes more serious and creates a war room of her own.

I loved this book!!! I can’t wait to sit and watch the movie. I love when Elizabeth takes a stand and fights for her family. I was cheering at that part! There is so much I want to talk about this book but I don’t want to ruin it. I highly recommend it! Excuse me, but I have a war room of my own to start.

A lot of people don’t pray because they don’t believe it works. But unfortunately it doesn’t work because we don’t really pray.”
