“Don’t tell anyone, but I have had long dry spells when my prayer life was simply dead, on a life support system or in need of rehabilitation. I have discovered that the restoration of my prayer life, as well as my greatest growth spurts in prayer, came as a result of reading books that provided biblical insights into the power and practice of prayer.

In other words, knowing why I should pray caused me to pray more, and knowing how I should pray helped me to pray more effectively. My prayer is that this book will likewise serve as a catalyst in your relationship with God, by igniting your prayer life and helping you to mature in your role as a disciple for Jesus Christ.”
