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 and has helped them learn how to pray faithfully and courageously. 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 readers 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!
“This book will be like having the breath of God at your back. Let it lift you to new hope.” —Dan B. Allender, PhD, author of Bold Love
Reviews
Creative Insights to Prayer
5By MEC70Paul Miller’s insights on the differing impacts of cynicism and hope on prayer was a great help to me. His bashing of psychology warrants some demerits (e.g., he completely misrepresents Kubler Ross’s “stages of grief” model), but the book still warrants a five-star rating. It is that helpful! Given the family trials he reveals as he tells his story, I can imagine he and his wife have met more than several counselors schooled in assured hopelessness and faithless cynicism. This book changed the way I pray. Thank you, Paul Miller. Blessings to you and your family.
