Jabez is an unsung Biblical figure, mentioned only briefly in Chronicles. The humble prayer that he offers to God, however, powerful in its simplicity, is answered, and Jabez is blessed. Wilkinson, founder of the Walk Through the Bible Ministries, feels that by bringing this prayer into their lives, readers can also reap the blessings of God. This version of the book, aimed specifically at teenagers, includes peer based stories, supporting scriptures, and interactive questions.
