Summary
Life has a tendency to knock our confidence in prayer. In the face of persistent difficulties, our prayer-fuelled hopes can be overwhelmed by such despair that we end up “on our knees” not so much in prayer, as in defeat.

Critics Review
“Biblically rich, and readably practical, this is a most helpful and encouraging companion on the journey of prayer.”–Rev. Dr Chris Wright, International Ministries Directory, Langham Partnership (12/28/2016)“Some books on prayer simply exhort the reader to pray more. This book helpfully sets the question of prayer in the wider context of how God relates to the world. Do our prayers make any difference? Do they change God’s will or do they only change us? These and other such questions are discussed in an uncomplicated fashion, without ducking the issues involved. A very practical book that is well worth reading.” –Tony Lane, professor of historical theology, London School of Theology–Tony Lane, professor of historical theology, London School of Theology (02/02/2017)
