If we're honest, most of us feel bored, distracted, or discouraged in prayer. We look for resources to give us the "right" words or teach us the "right" technique and are disappointed when they don't seem to help. What we fail to realize is that prayer isn't a place for us to be good or right, and it isn't a place for us to perform or prove our worth. It's a place for us to be honest, present, and known--a place for us to offer ourselves and receive God. Spiritual formation experts Kyle Strobel and John Coe want to show you what you've been missing when it comes to prayer. In this down-to-earth book, they show you how to fearlessly draw near to a holy God, pray without ceasing (and without posturing), and delight in the experience of being fully known and fully loved. Each chapter ends with prayer projects or practices to help you see a difference in your prayer life, starting now.

"Prayer is not only petition, it is also something more basic-it is soul to soul communication with God. And this really must come first, before we ask God for anything. For this is the heart of prayer. Before we expect Him to listen to our requests we must have made contact with His soul by our soul" (Excerpt). This is a book about prayer. It is a study of the most basic elements of Christian prayer. The book is written for anyone, young or old, who wants to deepen his prayer life and his walk with the Lord; it is thorough and reflective, yet easy-to-read.

Then there is a discussion about praise, and how praise is both different from and interdependent of petitionary prayer. Three chapters are devoted to intercession, and the last four chapters-on forgiveness, fasting, prayer posture, and yielding-lay out those all important elements that prepare one for prayer.
