Tim Challies recently wrote a review of the book, A Praying Life, by Paul Miller. In that opening sentences of that review he gives the following description of the book... "A Praying Life is the fruit of the prayer seminars that Miller has led scores of times over the years. And in the structure, in what it teaches, it has the practical, real-life feel of a seminar. The meat of the book is family stories-not dramatic tales, but just small vignettes of daily life and survival. These stories do not only offer that personal touch that takes the book out of the abstract, but they also provide a measure of cohesion, tying chapter-to-chapter and part-to-part."

The forward for the book was written by David Powlison who says, "A Praying Life will bring a living, vibrant reality to your prayers. Take it to heart." You can read the table of contents and David Powlison's forward HERE.

"This is as fine a book on prayer that you will ever read, but it is so much more. It is the story of our struggle to actually live like we believe that our Heavenly father really does love us. If we did, nothing could keep us from being committed to the day by day hard work of prayer. Paul exegetes our struggle in a way that is convicting, insight giving and encouraging. This is a book on prayer that actually makes you want to pray!"
- Paul David Tripp
