This book made me think of prayer in a whole new way and revealed more about who God is (even the parts that some people don't want to acknowledge - ie Judge). I LOVED this book--there a lot a misconceptions about prayer and he uses accounts from the Bible (Abraham, Jacob, Jesus, David, etc) to add much more depth/power to who God is and what prayer is. In a nutshell (which doesn't give it justice): prayer=1)humble recognition that it is HIs perogative to speak and our responsibility, pleasure

Love this book so far! It's a deep read, and so applicable to life. The author takes characters in the Bible and the interactions with God as a model for our interactions and relationship with God. Very profound.

One of the best books I've read in quite a while, and I plan to read it again. Profound yet accessible, White approaches these prayers in the Bible with authority, sensitivity, and a very personal approach. I felt as if I was being discipled. Highly recommended.

This was my second time through, because it was that good! Each chapter's on the life of a different Bible figure, and I learned so much about the Scripture as well as about prayer. John White is fresh, honest, and extremely profound. I found it very readable and learned a lot from it. Each chapter took my prayer life deeper and made it richer . . . twice, now! I'll probably read it again in a few years.

this book as been sitting on my shelf for a longest time [bought this years ago at urbana missions conference]. finally began reading...and my, what a pleasant surprise! gave me a new, fresh perspectives on the way we should approach our prayer. i particularly liked the last chapter - deals w/ topic we might not necessarily be comfortable thinking about, but, must all face one day.

This book took my prayers to the unfathomable level almost face to face with God.
