5 out of 5 stars Prayer: Does It Make Any Difference?   May 13, 2007
  3 out of 3 found this review helpful

This is an absolutely profound, insightful, challenging and encouraging look at prayer from a Biblical perspective. I am reading it a few segments at a time and have bought copies to share and encourage friends.


2 out of 5 stars A great disappointment.   April 20, 2007

Let me summarize for you. Who knows if prayer works? Who knows why God answers some prayers and not others? I ususally like Yancy but he really disappoints with this effort.

This book is very well written, and offers great perspective on a practice that is hard to grasp, at times.


5 out of 5 stars The answer is... Yes!   April 6, 2007

My husband and I read this book as part of a class at church. It generated a lot of good discussion. The best part of reading it was finding that Yancey asked many of the same questions I've asked myself about prayer, and his conclusions were very much along the same lines as many of mine. I felt validated that prayer does not have to be the formal form we're used to in church; it is an attitude of living a life in companionship with God.

Another in outstanding books by Philip Yancey. For those of us struggling with prayer, Yancey outlines in detail all aspects of prayer. Unanswered prayers - he has an answer. Is anyone listening - he has an answer. The book is full of answers for most of my questions and is loaded with encouragment to pray more. God is listening.
