A Praying Life

J.Steve — Tue, 16 Jun 2009 02:20:56 +0000

Connecting with God in a Distracting World

Description: A Praying Life is an honest look at the difficulties of prayer, unanswered prayers, and successes in prayer. Readers will appreciate Paul Miller’s down-to-earth approach and practical nature. Parents will find his family-life experiences especially helpful.

Reading A Praying Life, you’ll learn how to become like a child running to your Father – with your distractions and all. You’ll learn how to ask him for anything spiritual and earthy, including parking spots. Paul Miller’s insights into cynicism will reshape your asking and your faith that undergirds your asking. By living in Miller’s stories of unanswered prayer, you will learn to watch and anticipate the story God is weaving in your life. New and better questions will come to you as you begin to perceive God’s story in you. To help you establish a richer praying life, Miller explains how to use several practical tools in every day life.

A Praying Life by Paul Miller was selected by Christianity Today’s LeadershipJournal.net as one of the 10 most valuable books for church leaders of 2009.

Reviews from people

“What a refreshing book! If you’re tired of religious prayer games and rote prayers that stop at the ceiling or if you have suspected that God was on vacation somewhere, this book will change your life. And if you’re thinking about giving up on prayer, don’t! At least not until you’ve read this book. When you have, you’ll thank me for recommending it to you.”

— STEVE BROWN, professor, Reformed Theological Seminary; teacher on the syndicated radio program Key Life

“Honest, realistic, mature, wise, deep. Warmly recommended.”

— J.I. PACKER, professor of theology, Regent College; author of Knowing God

“Paul Miller teaches us to pray where we live: in the messiness of ordinary lives filled with kids, jobs, ministries, and other people’s constant needs and demands. He doesn’t offer shortcuts, but he does offer real encouragement and practical tools to grow deeper in an intimate conversation with God.” — CYNTHIA HYLE BEZEK, editor of Pray! magazine; author of Come Away with Me
