Perfect for you if...

  • You've tried praying before but felt like you were doing it wrong, or like your words just bounced off the ceiling.
  • You're curious about faith but sceptical of religious jargon, and you want a practical guide that doesn't assume you already know the language.
  • You're a regular churchgoer who wants to deepen your prayer life beyond Sunday morning rituals and generic requests.

Maybe not for you if...

  • You're looking for advanced mystical techniques or esoteric prayer practices beyond the basics.
  • You prefer theology-heavy books with extensive footnotes and scholarly debate over accessible how-to instruction.
  • You're not interested in Christian spirituality or have no framework of faith to build on.

About this book

Pete Greig, one of the founders of 24-7 Prayer International, offers a practical guide to prayer for all levels of faith, from committed Christians to skeptics and those uncertain about prayer. How to Pray presents biblically grounded methods for developing a prayer practice. The book covers starting prayer, keeping it simple, making requests through intercessory prayer, dealing with unanswered prayers, contemplative prayer without words, and listening to God. It includes stories from figures such as Corrie Ten Boom, Joni Eareckson Tada, and Saint Patrick. The book was a 2021 ECPA Award Finalist in the Christian Living Category. It is designed to be used alongside The Prayer Course, a free video curriculum, for individual study, small groups, or church settings.
