A Call to Spiritual Reformation

By: D. A. Carson

Narrated by: Matthew McAuliffe

Length: 8 hrs and 50 mins

Publisher's summary

God doesn't demand hectic church programs and frenetic schedules; he only wants his people to know him more intimately, says top-selling author D. A. Carson. The apostle Paul found that spiritual closeness in his own fellowship with the Father. By following Paul's example, we can do the same. This book calls believers to reject superficiality and revolutionize their lives by embracing a God-guided approach to prayer.

Previously published as A Call to Spiritual Reformation, this book has now been updated to connect more effectively with contemporary listeners. A study guide, DVD, and leader's kit for the book are available through Lifeway and The Gospel Coalition.

Great perspective on prayer

This book provides a great perspective on prayer from a trusted Christian scholar. it helped me with some major and minor course corrections. it challenged me to recommit myself to praying every day instead of most days.

Fine reading but with a modest suggestion

Matthew McAuliffe reads great. The narration is wonderful. HOWEVER, somebody must have forgotten to teach him how to read poetry. It’s atrocious - he pauses at the end of every line, reading like a sing-song nursery rhyme. There are phrases in poetry that sometimes carry over to the next line, so you don’t stop at the end of the line. HELP!

Powerful book, hard to palate

excellent book and well written, convicting. it seems as though Carson writes this with pastors in mind. Unfortunately, most Christians will not be able to palate the scholarly nature that it is written but should arrive to.

a must listen for 2020!!!

this is a book that is needed for anyone wanting to grow in their relationship with God. I found it very helpful, insightful and easy to understand. that said, I did struggle through parts feeling guilty about the current state of my prayer life, yet I work through those feelings and learned some very good practicals that I will take with me for the rest of my journey.

Devotional yet with solid Biblical explanations

Enjoyed the devotional and personal style of this book. It will be a great book to re-read and use as a small group study. Praying scriptures is a great way to enter into the Lord’s presence and bring glory to God!

Great read.

Loved it. Pray like Paul, apostle to the Gentiles. Gonna listen again on a road trip Friday.

Excellent

This was a great encouragement in both Paul’s form, circumstance, and motivation in going to prayer. The only downside to the audio version is not being able to underline passages for easy review later!

Great teaching on prayer

I enjoyed the convicting words about prayer and how best to change my prayer life to reflect Paul's prayers.

It Is The Spiritual Wisdom We Need

This book should be leather bound and embossed with gold, it is that good. For those who have ears to hear. God bless. I have already purchased a hard copy for rereading and meditation.
