Learning to Pray: The Journey Study Series

by Billy Graham

"You will only make this journey once. What kind of journey will it be?" Is prayer really that important? Doesn't God know what we need? Do you look forward to praying-or dread it? It is never a mistake to pray, but we do need to understand fully what prayer is and its role in our lives. Learning to Pray looks at the incredible privilege we have of speaking directly with our Creator at any time. God wants to be in fellowship with us. Learn to speak to God through prayer, offer him praise and thanksgiving, and listen for an answer. Talk to God and get to know Him better as you journey on life's path. The Journey Study Series is based on Billy Graham's best-selling book The journey, the culmination of lifetime of spiritual insight and ministry experience. Each chapter explores the joys, triumphs, and conflicts we all encounter on our journey through life. Each chapter includes thought-provoking questions, commentary, Scriptures, and insights to help you on life's journey. Each lesson teaches the secret of walking with God on life's path. Understanding God's truths will make life's journey easier and let Him fulfill His promise to lead you home.

[Michael K. · Rating 5 out of 5]

A very good companion book, along with others in the series for the THE JOURNEY STUDY SERIES. Well worth it to study the series and the book itself. Billy Graham had so much to say and inspired millions of people throughout the world to accept the Lord Jesus as their savior. Pray, in and of itself, is a foundational building block for all Christians to live their lives and build upon this foundation.
