This study examines the problem of relating prayer and social responsibility through an analysis and critical evaluation of the religious thought of Douglas Steere, a leading Quaker thinker and a key figure in twentieth century spirituality. Copenhaver clarifies Steere's solution to the dilemma and establishes a dialogue between a classical Quaker and a liturgical approach to the problem as a foundation for further study in the academy and in the churches. Contents: Steere in Context; Steere's Treatment of Prayer and Social Responsibility; Steere's Assimilation of Von H, gel and Woolman; Other Literary and Theological Sources; A Critical Evaluation of Steere's Spiritual Theology; Steere's Contribution to Contemporary Spirituality."

Merit Award, World Guild Christian Living Book Praying is an action that is of the essence of Christian existence. It involves our beliefs, emotions, values, hopes and fears, certainties and uncertainties, knowledge and ignorance. As J. I. Packer and Carolyn Nystrom explain, "Our aim is not just to clarify Christian understanding but to foster Christian living. In real praying, head, heart, and hands go together." With wisdom, humility, and sincerity the authors lead us through different moods of praying, including brooding, praising, asking, complaining, and hanging on. In Praying the authors offer hope for those of us who daydream when we try to listen to God and stumble when we try to speak. Yet they don't just teach us about prayer; they challenge and inspire us to do it by pointing us to a clearer realization of the reality of God and his character. Let Packer and Nystrom guide your praying to our powerful God, and let him move your praying through mere duty to delight.

Jesus said, "men ought always to pray and not to faint." Once again, the Holy Spirit is impressing and expounding this profound statement from the lips of the Master to His people. This generation of believers cannot trivialize the responsibility of prayer and expect to be sent by Heaven into the waiting harvest. We have been denied the joy of harvest because we have neglected the pain and travail of prayer.In this book, Dr. Bekee challenges us to take the instruction of Jesus and get back to action in prayer, in order to explore the amazing power of prayer.

Many Christians find private prayer a difficult duty, and thus they either totally neglect it, or are negligent in their performance of it. In Private Prayer: A Christian Duty, Puritan pastor Oliver Heywood illustrates the necessity of spending time in private prayer each day. Using Matthew 6:6 as his text (“But when you pray, go into your room and shut the door, and pray to your Father who is in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will reward you.”), Heywood teaches how to cultivate a habit of daily prayer which is both refreshing and delightful. He reviews the time, place, and content appropriate for our private prayers, and answers several objections that are commonly used to excuse ourselves from praying regularly—including lack of time, cold-heartedness, wandering thoughts, and not knowing what to say. Several Scriptural instances of private prayer are explored, including the Lord’s Prayer and the mighty wrestling of Jacob in prayer (Genesis 32). Through this teaching, the believer will find resources and encouragement to help fulfill this beneficial obligation. Out-of-print for nearly two hundred years, this classic treatise has been carefully prepared for the benefit of a new generation of Christian readers. Even those not accustomed to Puritan works will find Heywood’s warm and engaging style both eminently useful and Christ-exalting.

Prayer has an important role in the lives of believers. For some, however, prayer has become a chore almost something to be dreaded than eagerly anticipated. Some people get caught up in the "how much/how often" they pray. But it really is not about how many chapters of the Bible you read or how many minutes a day you pray.

If you feel badly about missing your devotions, if you quickly run out of things to say when you try to pray, if you sometimes find prayer boring, or if you have given up on trying to be a man or woman of prayer, From Duty to Delight can help you find your way to prayer that is fulfilling and that you can look forward to each day.

Our willingness and faithfulness to pray for others is the hallmark of an effective prayer life. Sometimes our prayers are hindered because we focus only on our needs or requests. But the church has been commissioned to make disciples of all nations, and it is the responsibility of each member to pray for others in our world. Well-organized and inspirational, The Prayer Manifesto for the Globally Conscious explores the importance of having a heart to pray for Gods people across the world by denying ourselves and taking up our cross to follow God. Author Lischa T. Brooks uses scriptural examples and humorous, personal stories to illustrate how to develop an effective personal prayer life and focus on our responsibility to pray for others. In addition to finding a deeper purpose and understanding of prayer principles, you can learn how to: begin your prayer with worship; conduct an examination of your attitudes and actions; pray with the Word of God; take time to listen to the Father; establish prayer partners; and connect with a local church body. Establishing a life of prayer requires more than just passion and desire; it involves a commitment to applying the principles outlined in the Word of God every day. Develop a rich prayer life committed to God with The Prayer Manifesto for the Globally Conscious.

Praying God’s Heart is for anyone who wants to be more effective in intercession—praying for others and for God’s kingdom to advance. Its 30 short chapters offer a thorough yet concise treatment of important issues related to intercessory prayer. Among the topics are: • The role of Father, Son and Holy Spirit in intercession • The listening side of prayer • Praying kingdom prayers • The relationship of obedience to answered prayer • The power of praying scripture • The prayer of faith “No generation has ever had as much knowledge about world conditions and problems as our,” says Alvin VanderGriend in Praying God’s Heart. “Along with that knowledge comes a responsibility to pray far and wide for the establishment of God’s plan and purposes.” Praying God’s Heart will teach you how to more effectively come alongside God’s purposes for your family, friends, church and world as you learn to intercede for what is on His heart.
