As Eddie Byun points out so effectively, in any battle the first priority of the enemy is to take out leaders. With insight that can only come from pastoral experience, Eddie motivates readers to intercede on behalf of their pastors. He explains why prayer is so needed and shares how we can effectively pray for our spiritual leaders. This book could very well be what God uses to help some pastors and churches survive. I pray many will read it. Thank you, Eddie, for serving our king with this book.

For all the years that I've known him, Eddie has been someone who has loved the church and been a support to his pastors. I know few others who are as qualified as he is to write this book. It moved me to pray and I can't wait to have my congregation read it. Pastors, if you want more prayer, get this book into the hands of your members.
