Teach Us to Pray: What We Can Learn from Scripture

by Carla D. Sunberg

Prayer is not simply another item for Christians to check off our daily to-do lists. If we are serious about the Christian life and about participating in God’s mission in the world, then prayer will be an active and intentional part of our lives. In Teach Us to Pray, Carla Sunberg allows Scripture to be the guide, showing us where our ancestors and heroes in the faith―including Jesus himself but also Paul, the psalmists, and others―have already walked these paths and demonstrated for us how to achieve and enjoy a deep relationship with God through prayer. Each chapter closes with actionable steps and suggestions for Christians who want to practice what they’ve learned but don’t know where to start.

A guide for prayer

The author ties together scripture and practical suggestions for building up my prayer life. I expect that I will return to these words often through the coming years to find encouragement and direction.

I love how much she uses versus of the Bible that most people don't focus on when teaching about prayer.
