This is not a "how to" book on prayer, but provides insightful insights to encourage the practice of prayer. As the author says in his introduction, "This book is concerned with our relationship with God...in becoming the kind of people who can keep company with God and, more importantly, enjoy his company."
It took me a long time to get through this book. Tugwell writes about how prayer is our relationship with God, rather than being something that we do. Looking back through, I noticed that I underlined a lot of lines. My favorite was, “The human heart of Jesus is the perfect expression of the divine love of God, and it must be the model for our loving.”
