Summary

Can't anyone teach me how to pray? Millions of people today are asking the same question. There is a sense of the necessity of prayer - we have to pray. But how?

Prayer is central to Christian faith; indeed, as Timothy Keller notes in his introduction, it is the main way we experience deep change. Yet so many people struggle with prayer - a struggle that the author himself has shared.

This wise and inspiring book is the fruit of those struggles, offering a real and glorious vision of what it can mean to seek God in prayer. Keller begins by giving a theological underpinning of what prayer actually is - both conversation and encounter with a personal God - before describing how we can learn to pray, and then deepen that prayer. Finally he gives detailed, practical suggestions on how to make prayer a part of the reality of daily life.

Quite dry, academic

It comes across quite like a textbook, or something you might write on a theology course. If that's what you're looking for, it's probably quite good. There's nothing original here though. From the sub-title, I was hoping it would be something that would inspire, but it's too dry for that. I wasn't enamoured by the narration style either, but that's just personal preference.

I love Tim Keller but this audiobook disappointed

I had to force myself through this. The final few chapters offered helpful advice. However, there's nothing you can't get for free by typing into google "Tim Keller Free Resources Meditation"

Content good. Narration - don’t listen and drive!

Excellent and comprehensive review of many prayer styles, let down by a very boring narration. This should come with a warning - Dont listen and Drive. It’s the delivery not the content.

Very good book

Really interesting, inspiring and easy to follow. Practical and rooted in scripture, it captures the wonder of prayer and is an encouragement to get on and do it.

Having finished it, I want to read it (and will) again!

An easy to read, conversational, pastoral guide to understanding personal prayer. An absolute must read for any Christian.

A Modern Classic for The 21st Century

I am already a fan of Tim Keller‘s work, but this book is truly inspirational. He has struck the right balance between calling on the great writers and leaders of the past, while simultaneously delivering it for a modern audience. The church is suffering dreadfully through a drought in prayer, it is my belief that this book is part of the answer.

Good content but sooooooo dull

Big fan of Keller but this book does not translate to audio well... do yourself a favour and spend the time praying instead. Narration is so dull and the content is like a really really long lecture with no actual joy!
