Prayers for This Life

Christian prayer rests on belief in the transcendent and personal nature of the God who is revealed in the Bible, and acceptance of the intimate relation of God and man made possible by the atoning work of Christ. The book is for people who want to follow a life of Christian prayer.

Chosen prayers reflect the rich inheritance of the English-speaking Christian world, which has made its own the finest expressions of worship through the centuries.

Here an enticing mixture of the familiar and the unknown, ideal for private reading and devotion or for use in school, public assembly or church.
