Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

A friendly, approachable guide for Christians who want to tap into the power of prayer. Approximately 159 million Americans identify themselves as Christians, and prayer groups are among the fastest growing spiritual organisations among both church and nonchurch members, including teenagers.

Christian Prayer For Dummies reconnects readers to the roots of prayer and explores the variety of prayer practicesโ€”dating back to the Jewish traditionโ€”that Christians have used to enrich their lives. Readers get information on dozens of popular prayer forms as well as advice on devising their own family prayer services and exploring events such as retreats and other guided prayer experiences.

Prayer leader Richard Wagner also answers basic questions about prayer: why to pray, how to pray, what it means to pray for God's will, and how to discern God's answers. He offers a minibook of powerful prayers that people can use when their own words fail them.

Richard Wagner (Princeton, MA) publishes and writes for Digitalwalk (www.digitalwalk.net), a web-based e-zine that challenges Christians to live out their faith in a digital, postmodern world. He has served in church leadership roles for over a dozen years.
