Description
Peter Kreeft brings his unique insights to this most essential area of our spiritual lives. He claims he himself remains to be a beginner in prayer, and this book is for all those, like him, who feel that they aren’t good at praying but desire to change into a lot better at it. Thus, Kreeft offers simple, but profound advice and practical steps for developing a prayer life in accordance with the time-tested wisdom of the saints and great spiritual writers, especially the principles found in Brother Lawrence’s classic, The Practice of the Presence of God. In short, straight-forward and unsentimental chapters, Kreeft covers the entire key areas for understanding and developing that intimate type of communication with our Writer that we call prayer. He covers such areas as the necessity of prayer, quite a lot of motives and methods, steps, patience, suffering, sin, faith, and grace.
