Overview
The great C.S. Lewis said, “I pray because I can’t help myself. I pray because I’m helpless. I pray because the need flows out of me all the time, waking and sleeping. It doesn’t change God. It changes me.” The act of praying demands an impossibility that we request and Lewis’s insights on Christianity, reflections, and teachings are cultivated from essays, articles, letters, and his classic words in How to Pray.
Lewis provides a deeper understanding of the personal tradition of prayer, faith, and what it means to be a Christian. This compilation addresses commonly asked questions related to prayer such as:
· Can prayer be proven to work?
· Why should we pray if God already knows what we need?
· How does prayer fit with the idea of God’s providence?
· How can prayer become a regular practice?
· How should we pray when we’re grieving?
· Can we pray to avoid suffering?
· How should we handle unanswered prayers?
If you want to deepen your relationship with God or you’re searching for ways to strengthen your prayer life, How to Pray is the practical wisdom you need.
