A Call to Spiritual Reformation

Priorities from Paul and his prayers
£13.00
A Call to Spiritual Reformation investigates the Epistles to see what lessons Paul taught in his 'school of prayer.'

Description

God doesn't demand hectic church programs and frenetic schedules: he only wants his people to know him more intimately, says D A Carson. The apostle Paul found that spiritual closeness in his own fellowship with the Father. A Call to Spiritual Reformation investigates the Epistles to see what lessons Paul taught in his 'school of prayer.'

Christians today can still achieve the confidence Paul enjoyed by following his life - shaping principles and searching for a deeper devotional experience.

Excellent - puts depth into your prayer life

 This is an excellent book. Using Paul's prayers we are shown how to put real depth into our praying. Instead of praying solely for physical benefits Carson teaches us to pray for the spiritual well being and progress of our Christian family and friends. The book is thoroughly biblical as well being practical. It tackles excuses and hindrances to praying and challenges us to reform our prayer life. I recommend it to all Christians.
