Legendary preacher, author and scholar G. Campbell Morgan teaches the reader the methods, mindset and theology of prayer, that readers may become closer to God. The Practice of Prayer is a superb handbook for Christians wishing to make the most of their time at prayer, and to use prayer as a vehicle through which to get closer to God. The chapters of this book consider the practice of prayer through a theological lens; examining scripture, Morgan reaches informed conclusions to as how we should pray. Principally, Morgan identifies Jesus Christ as a figure of importance in developing prayer as a tradition. The instructions Jesus dispensed are filled with depth and meaning, and it is this that Morgan efforts to explain for readers. Additionally, Morgan draws upon additional books of the New Testament, such as Thessalonians, to properly express and imbue his points and instructions.
