Deepening Your Prayer Life: Audio: Approach God with Boldness
Listening and speaking to God.
Prayer is communication. It is not a formula that we have memorized, or an empty repetition of words and phrases, but our conversation with God–with us first speaking and then listening to what God has to say to us in return. However, as Dr. Charles Stanley reveals in Deepening Your Prayer Life, our prayers go beyond mere human interaction in that they give us access into the very throne room of God. Our heavenly Father grants us the privilege to come before him with authority because of our position in Christ. When we do, we can be bold in believing that God will accomplish what He promised He would do in our lives.
The Charles F. Stanley Bible Study Series is a unique approach to Bible study, incorporating biblical truth, personal insights, emotional responses, and a call to action. Each study draws on Dr. Stanley’s many years of teaching the guiding principles found in God’s Word, showing how we can apply them in practical ways to every situation we face. This edition of the series has been completely revised and updated, and includes two brand-new lessons from Dr. Stanley.

About the author
Charles F. Stanley
555 books685 followersDr. Charles F. Stanley is the senior pastor of First Baptist Church Atlanta, founder of In Touch Ministries, and a New York Times best-selling author who has written more than fifty books, and has sold more than nine million copies. He demonstrates a keen awareness of people's needs and provides Christ-centered, biblically-based principles for everyday life.
Charles Frazier Stanley was born September 25, 1932, in the small town of Dry Fork, Virginia. The only child of Charley and Rebecca Stanley, Charles came into the world during a time when the entire nation felt the grip of the Great Depression. To make matters worse, just nine months later, his father Charley died at the young age of 29.
However, Charles refused to let the Great Depression or the difficulties of his life define him. Instead, like his father and grandfather before him, he clung to God’s Word and took up the mantle to preach the gospel to whoever would listen.
Dr. Stanley’s motivation is best represented by the truth found in Acts 20:24, “Life is worth nothing unless I use it for doing the work assigned me by the Lord Jesus—the work of telling others the Good News about God's mighty kindness and love.” This is because, as he says, “It is the Word of God and the work of God that changes people’s lives.”
Dr. Stanley’s teachings can be heard weekly at First Baptist Church Atlanta, daily on “In Touch with Dr. Charles Stanley” radio and television broadcasts on more than 2,800 stations around the world, on the Internet at intouch.org, through the In Touch Messenger, and in the monthly, award-winning In Touch magazine.

Insightful and uplifting
This book gives lots of Bible verses and guidance to improve your prayer life. It is challenging yet makes it seem attainable. All of us get frustrated at times that God does not seem to answer. This gives reasons that may be happening and helps each determine if God's answer is wait, no or yes. It helps you keep praying when you feel prayed out. Communicating directly with God is an awesome thing. This book helps you see the Biblical way to improve your prayer life. Highly recommend.

Very Valuable and Inspirational
This book, though poorly edited, is very useful and inspiring to me. I am learning a lot and plan to read it again with a group. Most of the teaching resonates with me. It's a good resource.

This bible study was so good, it was straight to the point and great for solo or you could use it as a group study. Take your time with it, let the lessons soak into your mind, body, and spirit. Truly impactful.

Lots of hard work here. Took a lot of time to get through 149 pages. I believe it would have been more helpful it done with a group. Just reading on your own did not make a lasting impression on me.
