"Some churches now advertise courses on how to pray. How ridiculous! That is like giving a course on how to fall in love." --A. W. TozerTozer understood prayer as few do: as a way of life. This volume will help readers capture that same grand vision.
With biblical wisdom and stunning insight, Tozer warns us of the barrenness of busyness--of "hurting ourselves where we cannot afford it." He urges us to commune regularly with God and offers varied reflections on what that entails.
With added commentary and reflection questions,
Prayer compels us not just to pray, but to have a life that prays.
