For many of us, prayer is so hard that we pray only when an illness or
a public setting demands it. Prayerlessness is rooted in a core un-belief oft en marked by fear, anxiety,joylessness, and spiritual lethargy.
Paul Miller’s encouraging book is for any Christian who wants to know
the joy and power of a vibrant prayerlife.
