We all pray . . . some. We pray to stay sober, centered, or solvent. When the lump
is deemed malignant. When the money runs out before the
month does. When the marriage is falling apart. We pray. But wouldn’t we like to pray more? Better? Stronger? With
more fire, faith, and fervency? Yet we have kids to feed, bills to pay, deadlines to meet.
The calendar pounces on our good intentions like a tiger on
a rabbit. And what about our checkered history with prayer?
Uncertain words. Unmet expectations. Unanswered requests. We aren’t the first to struggle with prayer. The first
followers of Jesus needed prayer guidance too. In fact,
prayer is the only tutorial they ever requested. And Jesus gave them a prayer. Not a lecture on prayer. Not
the doctrine of prayer. He gave them a quotable, repeatable,
portable prayer. Couldn’t we use the same? In Before Amen best-selling author Max Lucado joins readers
on a journey to the very heart of biblical prayer, offering
hope for doubts and confidence even for prayer wimps.
Distilling prayers in the Bible down to one pocket-sized
prayer, Max reminds readers that prayer is not a privilege
for the pious nor the art of a chosen few. Prayer is simply
a heartfelt conversation between God and his child. Let the
conversation begin.
