Praying with Paul

A Call to Spiritual Reformation
Written by D. A. Carson
God doesn't demand hectic church programs and frenetic schedules; he only wants his people to know him more intimately, says top-selling author D. A. Carson. The apostle Paul found that spiritual closeness in his own fellowship with the Father. By following Paul's example, we can do the same. This book calls believers to reject superficiality and revolutionize their lives by embracing a God-guided approach to prayer.
Previously published as ‘A Call to Spiritual Reformation’, this book has now been updated to connect more effectively with contemporary readers.
Reviews
"Illustrations are interesting and illuminating and applications forceful and relevant. The reader is guided, gently yet persuasively, towards a reformation in personal dealings with God. This excellent and timely book can be heartily commended." - Edward Donnelly, The Banner of Truth
"Although a gifted academic, the author of this book writes with a pastor's heart. He has no pretensions about the quality of his own prayer life, and yet the practical wisdom and exegetical insights afforded in this book are a telling testimony to the Spirit of God's presence in his own upbringing. . . . The text of Paul's prayers provides a wealth of material for Christians to frame their own prayers, and Carson's careful examination of the apostle's prayers brings this bounty within the reach of the average reader. . . . It is a book with rich insights, both exegetical and pastoral, and should be read by all those desiring to improve their prayer life, or more importantly those who desire that their prayers might conform to the pattern that God has provided in the apostle Paul." -Glenn N. Davies, Reformed Theological Review
"This book contains information, insight, wisdom, and practical theology that will enhance the prayer life of any believer. . . . Read the book; the change in your prayer life will be worth it." - Michael R. Spradlin, Mid-America Theological Journal
Paperback, 215 pages, 2nd Edition, questions for discussion, notes, Scripture index, subject index
