    About this audiobook

    Prayers are windows on eternity. Through the prayers in the Bible we look into the profoundest issues of life and death and into the deepest longings of our own hearts. In this classic book on prayer, John White explores ten prayers from Scripture to help take you near to the Holy One of the universe, the personal God of each person in the world.

      An interesting approach to prayer, and one I found very useful. Instead of just listing all the stuff we're supposed to be doing in prayer, White looks at the prayers written in the Bible and discusses them. In this approach, it is Christ, Paul, David, and Abraham who are teaching me to pray. I got a lot out of this one, and I plan to reread it very soon.
