[Lianna Davis · Rating 3 out of 5]

This booklet offers inspiration for getting started with prayer and dwells largely on the practicalities of the discipline. Those looking for a meditation on the riches and beauty of communing with God may want to look elsewhere. Those seeking the basic beginnings may find this a gentle push in the right direction.

I found this booklet on prayer to be very helpful. It is concise and to the point. Each chapter includes a few discussion questions. The chapters are; What is Prayer?, What Are the Blessings of Prayer?, Pray Scripture, Pray Purposefully, and Pray with Others. I am looking forward to reading the other booklets in this series.
