He writes with humility, clarity, and practicality-exactly the qualities I want in a book on prayer. -Philip Yancey Revised and Expanded Edition with Study Guide Included Timothy Jones...guides us into a life of prayer not by cramming us with knowledge and technique, but by quietly returning us to simplicity of soul and the presence of God. -Eugene Peterson Something within us wants to grow closer to the God who loves to relate to us. But we often hesitate. Even though we have a desire to pray, questions nag us: Can I pray when I feel distant from God?Is it okay to ask God for help in little things?What do I do when I don't know what to say?What sense can I make of seemingly unanswered prayer?How do I keep growing closer to God?
