Prayer, a Beginner's Guide

Reviews / Votes

From Magnet, Autumn 2009 Jane Holloway, the National Prayer Director at the World Prayer Centre in Birmingham, has written this helpful little book for anyone interested in prayer from the standpoint that the need for prayer has become much more important in many people's minds. She tries to answer all the questions that are asked about the nature of prayer, giving little manageable hints how to get started and she doesn't baulk at the tricky question of how God answers. I was encouraged by the breadth of experience of prayer that she included: solitary, in groups, silent, all day and others. I feel this would be good to have ready to give to any explorer of the faith and a good inspiration for the rest of us. I am especially thrilled with the book by Jane Holloway - hardly just prayer for beginners - it works beautifully at all levels, but is so simply and clearly presented. Hilary, a reader
