Prayer

Experiencing Awe and Intimacy with God

De: Timothy Keller

Narrado por: Sean Pratt

'"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.

Loved this book!

I highly recommend this book for anyone struggling with prayer. It's very practical and he consults a wide range of authors. It's a book that I will most likely go back to.

Eye-opening encouragement to pray

I thought I knew quite a bit about prayer but in this book Tim Keller demonstrates that it is so much more than I thought. He appeals frequently to Scripture but also draws heavily on the works of greats like Luther, Calvin and Augustine. His solution is not an easy quick fix marketing ploy but a call to a deep and dedicated prayer life.
