B&H Publishing Group announced Friday that two companion book products for the movie War Room have landed on the New York Times bestseller list.

B&H projects that Fervent: A Woman’s Battle Plan to Serious, Specific and Strategic Prayer, by Priscilla Shirer, will appear at No. 3 and The Battle Plan for Prayer: From Basic Training to Targeted Strategies, by Alex & Stephen Kendrick, will appear at No. 13 on the Advice, How-To and Miscellaneous list on Oct. 4, 2015.

Priscilla Shirer, star of War Room and author of Fervent, said she was thrilled with the success.

“It has been a gift to watch the swell of enthusiasm around the War Room movie and Fervent,” said Shirer. “I believe so strongly in this message about prayer, and I am sincerely grateful to be part of bringing it to the forefront of the national consciousness once again. My hope is that the book will continue to stir people to seek God in fervent prayer. He is and has always been the answer.”

Alex and Stephen Kendrick said they were pleased with the positive reception for War Room.

“We are so excited about the response to the movie War Room,” said the Kendricks in a statement. “The fact that tens of thousands of people are reading the companion book, The Battle Plan for Prayer, means that they are serious about going deeper in their prayer life. May God raise up a generation that fights on their knees and seeks Him with their whole heart. We are so encouraged. Praise God!”

Jennifer Lyell, publisher for B&H, said that God is using their products mightily.

"Working with Stephen and Alex Kendrick as well as Priscilla Shirer has been an absolute blessing for War Room the movie and B&H," said Lyell. "They have been so faithful in prayer with the vision of both The Battle Plan for Prayer and Fervent. God has been using these books in tremendous ways to call people to prayer."
