Product Description
by Michael C. Voigts (Author)
For many of us, prayer is something we know we should do, yet it's the one means of connecting with God most intimidating to us. In this book, Michael C. Voigts presents the ultimate expression of prayer not as something we do, but as part of our very nature. Prayer is more than merely praying. Communication with God involves our entire lives. This book follows a four-stage process which begins with love for God and culminates in life in God. Grounded in Scripture and the witness of those in historic Christianity, this ecumenical approach to prayer fuses theology and experience with conversational, accessible language and ideas.
