{"product_id":"9780692747339","title":"Prayer: Confronting The Confusion","description":"Prayer is merely conversation with God. Therefore, it shouldn't require a book to explain how to do it. However, prayer can also be a source of perplexity, doubt, confusion, and even discomfort. It was for me. When I tried to pray, I was plagued with doubts. Did my doubts disqualify me? Did I doubt too much to be able to receive anything from God? It seemed like my mind was continually wandering. Did this mean that I wasn't in touch with God, or worse, that He was rejecting me? Did I have enough faith? What was faith supposed to feel like? Was there a particular faith experience? I knew that without faith, it is impossible to please God. Perhaps I wasn't very pleasing to Him. And the doubts didn't stop there. How was I to pray? Did I first need to quiet my mind? Was I supposed to visualize God? Was I supposed to hear His voice? The Christian mystics convinced me that if my prayers weren't being answered, it meant that I wasn't connecting with God. Should I therefore practice some of their techniques? Should I repeat one \"sacred word\" over and over again? These confusing doubts and questions and many others tormented me. For years, they continued their debilitating work until I was able to come up with biblical answers that satisfied me. This book is not a book of techniques. Instead, it presents a theology of prayer that answers these tormenting questions, thus enabling Christians to find peace and assurance when they pray. I feel privileged by my Lord to have been given these comforting, biblically coherent answers. It has been a great privilege to pass these truths on to my students. And now, through this book, I trust that more students and many others will be strengthened in their faith and blessed as they pray.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eAuthor: \u003c\/b\u003eDaniel Mann\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/b\u003eSdg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003ePublication Date: \u003c\/b\u003eAug 11, 2016\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eNumber of Pages: \u003c\/b\u003e92 pages\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eLanguage: \u003c\/b\u003eEnglish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eBinding: \u003c\/b\u003ePaperback\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eISBN-10: \u003c\/b\u003e0692747338\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eISBN-13: \u003c\/b\u003e9780692747339\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"NA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49225573335345,"sku":"9780692747339","price":13.28,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0798\/8215\/8385\/files\/9780692747339__16821_3e8c1e26-6cc9-4746-a07e-5ed1243e188d.jpg?v=1717068916","url":"https:\/\/www.recomparo.com\/products\/9780692747339","provider":"ReComparo.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
