The Hidden Life of Prayer
The Life-Blood of the Christian
This is perhaps the most practical and useful book on prayer we have ever read. Private or secret prayer is the life-blood of the Christian. The great men and women of God down through the ages have testified to the effectiveness of this in their lives.
Drawing on the experiences of people like Luther, Spurgeon, Muller, Whitefield and Wesley, the author presses the case for a greater commitment to prayer.
His advice may not only transform your life, it could be a catalyst towards a change in the world around you.
Endorsements
“Every time I read this book, the Lord uses it to deepen my prayer life and encourage my faith. I strongly recommend it.” — Dr. Wayne Grudem, Professor of Systematic Theology, Phoenix Seminary
“It was in 1971 I first read this book I was shown a copy in Al Martin’s home and he told me how he used it, which plan I took up enthusiastically and have used ever since. I have read it through aloud during a week of morning meetings with various assistants and with deacons before they have started work. Every time I read it I discover something fresh, convicting and helpful. The book does not make you afraid of prayer. It has a fragrance of Disruption times and the Awakening in the middle of the 19th century, in fact the author was born in that great year of 1859. He later married the daughter of Andrew Bonar and that warm piety and close walk with God characterizes this, McIntyre’s best book..” — Geoff Thomas, Pastor, Alfred Place Baptist Church, Aberystwyth, Wales
“God brings books at their appointed times. The Hidden Life of Prayer arrived late but well-timed. This little jewel-strewn tapestry has done for me at 64 what Bounds’ Power Through Prayer did at 34. I could be ashamed that I need inspiration for the highest privilege. But I choose to be thankful.” — John Piper, Founder of Desiring God Ministries, Chancellor of Bethlehem College & Seminary, Minneapolis, Minnesota

A Praying Life: Connecting with God in a Distracting World (Paul Miller)
We all know it — prayer can be hard. In fact, prayer is so hard that most of us rarely pray unless an illness, or a public setting, such as saying grace at a meal, demands it. Prayerlessness is rooted in a core unbelief that can shape our lives, even as Christians. Because of prayerlessness, our lives are often marked by fear, anxiety, joylessness, and spiritual lethargy.
If prayerlessness marks your life more often than not, then this book is for you. Paul Miller writes to the heart of the matter. This book is for any Christian who wants to know the joy and power of a vibrant prayer life.
“This is as fine a book on prayer that you will ever read, but it is so much more. It is the story of our struggle to actually live like we believe that our Heavenly Father really does love us. Paul exegetes our struggle in a way that is convicting, insight-giving and encouraging. This is a book on prayer that actually makes you want to pray!”
— Dr. Paul David Tripp, Author of Instruments in the Redeemer’s Hands and other books$15.99
