Summary

Can't anyone teach me how to pray? Millions of people today are asking the same question. There is a sense of the necessity of prayer - we have to pray. But how?

Prayer is central to Christian faith; indeed, as Timothy Keller notes in his introduction, it is the main way we experience deep change. Yet so many people struggle with prayer - a struggle that the author himself has shared.

This wise and inspiring book is the fruit of those struggles, offering a real and glorious vision of what it can mean to seek God in prayer. Keller begins by giving a theological underpinning of what prayer actually is - both conversation and encounter with a personal God - before describing how we can learn to pray, and then deepen that prayer. Finally he gives detailed, practical suggestions on how to make prayer a part of the reality of daily life.

A very specific take on prayer...

This assumes a very high Christian protestant approach, but even if you don't share the Christology there are some interesting ideas. Worth a scan, but more of an instruction manual for a particular type of Christianity than a theological overview!

Having finished it, I want to read it (and will) again!

An easy to read, conversational, pastoral guide to understanding personal prayer. An absolute must read for any Christian.

Narrator is good. Quite informative and insightful. Gives a different perspective to prayer and intimacy with God that I did not know before.I would definitely recommend.

A Heart Opening Book

This book was great I enjoyed the continual references to biblical verses to back up the narrative explanations. It has lead me to understand more about prayer and God. There are few books which open up the heart but this one has and has left me with way to continue my devotional experience & deepening intimacy with God!

Content good. Narration - don’t listen and drive!

Excellent and comprehensive review of many prayer styles, let down by a very boring narration. This should come with a warning - Dont listen and Drive. It’s the delivery not the content.

So insightful!

very in depth insight into prayer with many practical examples.

I found that it’s helpful to read this book and pause at certain parts to actually apply what is being spoken.
