A Month of Prayer

With this collection of meditations and prayers, the authors hope to provide a pathway to a deeper experience of prayer--an experience that flows organically from a deeper grasp of what Scripture teaches on the form, content, and practice of prayer. Herman Melville, the author of the novel Moby Dick, observed that ""to produce a mighty book, you must choose a mighty theme."" The mighty theme of Jesus' life was prayer. Prayer requires time to cultivate; prayer demands extraordinary perseverance. But once Jesus' approach to prayer is mastered, don't be surprised if others approach and ask, ""Teach me to pray like that.""
