Quiet Talks on Prayer

For over a century, readers have found in 'Quiet Talks on Prayer' a gentle, profound invitation to draw closer to God through the simplest yet most powerful of spiritual practices. In this modern-English edition, S. D. Gordon's timeless wisdom is made freshly accessible, preserving his original meaning and spirit while removing archaic language. He guides us through the prayer life as a loving friendship, the purpose of prayer as cooperation with God, and the practical steps of building a daily habit of quiet conversation. Gordon answers the common questions and struggles about prayer—why some prayers seem unanswered, how to persevere, and what it truly means to pray in Jesus' name. This book is not a theological treatise but a tender, earnest companion for anyone who longs to pray more naturally and effectively. Part of The Modern Wisdom Library.
