Heart to Heart

When the chaos of our daily lives become overwhelming, where can we turn for peace and rest? Apostle Alain Lea points to the Source of all hope and strength in Heart to Heart, which contains sixty guided prayers. We all pray . . . some. We pray to stay sober, centered or solvent. When the lump is deemed malignant, when the money runs out before the month does or when the marriage is falling apart, we pray. But wouldn't we like to pray more? Better? Stronger? With more fire, faith, and fervency?

We have kids to feed, bills to pay, deadlines to meet. The calendar pounces on our good intentions like a tiger on a rabbit. What about our checkered history with prayer: uncertain words, unmet expectations and unanswered requests?

We are not the first to struggle with prayer. The first followers of Jesus needed prayer guidance too. In fact, prayer is the only tutorial they ever requested and Jesus gave them a prayer, not a lecture on prayer, not the doctrine of prayer; He gave them a quotable, repeatable, portable prayer. Couldn't we use the same?

In Heart to Heart, best-selling author Dr. Alain Lea invites readers on a journey to the very heart of Biblical prayer, offering hope for doubts and confidence, even for prayer wimps. Distilling prayers in the Bible down to one pocket-sized prayer, Alain reminds readers that prayer is not a privilege for the pious nor the art of a chosen few. Prayer is simply a heartfelt conversation between God and his child. Let the conversation begin.
