Synopsis

One of the most influential books on prayer ever written, The Kneeling Christian, though small, is big on the theology of prayer. In a truly interesting style, the author (an "unknown Christian") simply goes to the Scripture and points out how important prayer is to the life of a believer. The first chapter alone is worth the price of admission. In it, the author states that a person's greatest regret, once in heaven, will be to look back and wonder why he or she didn't pray more. When a person realizes how much can be gained by praying, it should astound us that we don't spend more time on our knees. This is one book worth reading--and re-reading--every single year. Because its message is truly timeless, it never grows old. Highly recommended to new and longer-standing Christians of every persuasion!

About this title

From the Back Cover:

Since its first publication, The Kneeling Christian has helped hundreds of thousands of believers discover the key to God's treasure house of blessing. This classic book on prayer, written by 'An Unknown Author' sometime before the 1930's, answers the most basic and often-asked questions Christians have about prayer: 'How shall I pray?' 'What is prayer?' 'Must I agonize?' 'Does God always answer prayer?' 'Who may pray?' Prayer, though an essential part of Christian experience, remains mysterious to many believers. The author set about to familiarize Christians with the source of power available to them through prayer. According to The Kneeling Christian, 'All real growth in the spiritual life--all victory over temptation, all confidence and peace in the presence of difficulties and dangers, all repose of spirit in times of great disappointment or loss, all habitual communion with God--depends on the practice of secret prayer.' This powerful, time-tested book points the way toward communion with God and all the life-changing benefits that derive from it.

About the Author:

"The majority of Christian men and women who pray to a Living God know very little about real prevailing prayer. Yet prayer is the key that unlocks the door of God's treasure-house. It is not too much to say that all real growth in the spiritual life--all victory over temptation, all conficence and peace in the presence of difficulties and danger, all repose of spitit in time of great disappointment or loss, all habitual communion with God--depends upon the practice of secret prayer."
