Story Behind the Book "This book became a reality thanks to these four things: a recurring image in my fresh-from-sleep thoughts about a boy in a bell tower, extensive Bible study on Jesus' prayers, the publisher's request for a youth book focusing on Jesus and prayer; and then a friend's off-hand mention of the phrase, 'What would Jesus pray?'" -Mack Thomas From the Hardcover edition.
