A Praying Life

Connecting with God in a Distracting World

By: Paul E. Miller, David Powlison - foreword

Narrated by: George W. Sarris

Prayer is hard. Often, unless circumstances demand it—such as an illness or saying grace before a meal—most of us simply do not pray. This kind of prayerlessness can leave us with a distressed spirit and practical unbelief characterized by fear, anxiety, joylessness, and spiritual depression.

A Praying Life is a prayer guide that has encouraged thousands of Christians to pursue a vibrant prayer life full of joy and power. A life of prayer invites you to a life of connection to God. When Jesus describes the intimacy that He seeks with us, He talks about joining us for dinner (Revelation 3:20). This book reminds listeners that prayer is simply making conversation with God a rhythm of daily Christian life.

A Praying Life includes chapters about:

- How to deal with unanswered prayer

- How to start a prayer journal

- Does prayer make a difference?

Now with added chapters addressing prayers of lament and further guidance for using prayer cards, Paul Miller invites you to foster prayer that regularly hopes, trusts, and expects God to act. Learn to develop helpful habits and approaches to prayer that will enable you to return to a childlike faith and witness spiritual growth today!

Great book, horrible narration.

The material in this book is beneficial for anyone seeking to grow in their prayer life. BUT the narration is so bad. The most frustrating part are the random holding out or slowing down words for dramatic emphasis, often in the middle of sentences. It makes listening very obnoxious after a while. If you want to grow in prayer this is a good book, but the audio book may. not. be….your best beeettt.
