About this ebook

More than 500,000 copies sold! Updated and expanded!
Prayer is hard. Often, unless circumstances demand it—such as an illness or saying grace before a meal—most of us simply do not pray. This kind of prayerlessness can leave us with a distressed spirit and practical unbelief characterized by fear, anxiety, joylessness, and spiritual depression.

A Praying Life is a prayer guide that has encouraged thousands of Christians to pursue a vibrant prayer life full of joy and power and has helped them learn how to pray faithfully and courageously. A life of prayer invites you to a life of connection to God. When Jesus describes the intimacy that He seeks with us, He talks about joining us for dinner (Revelation 3:20). This book reminds readers that prayer is simply making conversation with God a rhythm of daily Christian life.

A Praying Life includes chapters about:
  • How to deal with unanswered prayer
  • How to start a prayer journal
  • Does prayer make a difference?
Now with added chapters addressing prayers of lament and further guidance for using prayer cards, Paul Miller invites you to foster prayer that regularly hopes, trusts, and expects God to act. Learn to develop helpful habits and approaches to prayer that will enable you to return to a childlike faith and witness spiritual growth today!

“This book will be like having the breath of God at your back. Let it lift you to new hope.” —Dan B. Allender, PhD, author of Bold Love

This book was relevant, with some insightful ideas and anecdotes on how to become more effective at engaging in prayer. Also, the book was broken down into small chapters (less than 10 pages each), so it was easy to drop in, read a chapter, and jump out.

Worth to read than merely browsing your FB the whole day because it will help you realize the amazing grace of God through a deeper prayer life.
