Book Description
Prayer is–as the title suggests–simply talking with your Father. It's having an ongoing conversation with God, where you as His child openly and honestly communicate your praise, repentance, thankfulness, and requests. When we have a humble posture before our Father, it gradually tunes our hearts to His so that our desires line up with His eternal plan. In Talking with My Father, Ray Stedman looks at our deep need for prayer and the nature of prayer through the lens of Jesus's parables in Luke 18.

Book Description
In the gospels, Jesus teaches much about prayer -- that God is our Father, that we can approach him directly, and that prayer thrives when done with simplicity, confidence, and persistence. Jesus also showed us many ways to pray -- in solitude and with friends, in wordless contemplation and humble intercession, and always with an attitude of obedience to his Father's will. All these are lessons for people who seek a more enriching prayer experience. Author George Martin shows us how to read the gospels for precious insight into prayer and teaches us how to "pray as Jesus prayed".

Book Description
The Lord's Prayer, the prayer that Jesus taught us, is one of the most familiar and beloved of all prayers. But familiarity has dulled its radical edge. In this close reading, Crosby shows how the "Our Father" summarizes the themes in the Gospel of Matthew, especially those of social justice. If we recite this prayer faithfully, we are responding to Jesus' call to reject the worship of idols, to engage in right relationships with our neighbors, and to commit ourselves to the project of the Kingdom of God -- that God's will may truly be done "on earth as it is in heaven."
