 Just ok May 2, 2008

This book was less practical than what I would have wanted in a book about prayer. I was looking for a book that helped me to understand prayer better and to help me feel more comfortable about prayer. A better book for me wasSix Prayers God Always Answers. This book taught me how prayer isn't about praying the "right" way; it's about a conversation with God.

This book is so amazing that I bought 10 of them to give as gifts. It is very simple to read, nothing too deep that you really, really have to read and re-read to understand. I have read it twice because, believe it or not, I think it has made me a better person. I know I will read it many more times.

This is an amazing book that should be read by everyone.
When I say that it should be read by all, I do not mean just those who are Christians. This is a book that has life changing potential for believers and unbelievers alike. Prior to reading this, I thought that it might be one that is pushing the so-called 'prosperity gospel', the 'name it and claim it' nonsense. I am glad to say that it is nothing of the kind.
The most relevant part to those who are not Christ followers is the first chapter. It focuses on a very simple prayer: 'God, Show Me That You Exist'. This is something that can be said by even atheists and agnostics if they are honestly wanting to pursue the truth. One would have nothing to lose by praying this, and if he/she is sincerely seeking, an answer will be forthcoming.
Unless one is a believer, it is unlikely that he/she will pray any of the others. That is fine as the first one is certainly the most fundamental and critical.
Beyond the first one, every other chapter focuses on different areas of life. These areas include such things as wisdom, suffering, forgiveness, and many other critical areas.
Each succeeding chapter continues to build on the foundation of the first one. They are all really superb. The author has done a great job of footnoting the entire book to give one a quick Biblical references for all of the points made.
I cannot say enough good things about this book. I believe that it has the potential to be life changing for virtually anyone who reads it. This is too good to read through in a hurry. It should be savored, pondered, and prayed about.
I highly recommend it!

This book is practical, easy to read and understand. The author didn't give any fluff of "name it and claim it" mentality but was very direct on the things God will always say YES to and provides examples and Scriptures to back it up. Recommended.

This was such an inspiring set of CDs presented in a practical and easy to understand language. The author is well-educated and well-documented and makes it assessible for us "lay people." It was a beautiful preparation for Lent and Easter.
