I highly recommend reading this book. ( )

Mais um excelente livro de D. A. Carson. O que precisa ser traduzido! A única coisa que peca e deixar as notas de rodapé no final do livro. De resto, perfeito. ( )

God doesn't demand hectic church programs and frenetic schedules; he only wants his people to know him more intimately, says top-selling author D. A. Carson. The apostle Paul found that spiritual closeness in his own fellowship with the Father. By following Paul's example, we can do the same. This book calls believers to reject superficiality and revolutionize their lives by embracing a God-guided approach to prayer.

禱告是基督徒不可或缺的屬靈操練。在當今以這個操練為主題的書籍中，本書是最有幫助、最以聖經為基礎的。溫和而令人信服地引導我們，朝著靈命更新之路邁進。
全書對保羅書信中的幾個重要的禱告進行深入的探討，包括帖撒羅尼迦前後書、腓立比書、歌羅西書、以弗所書、羅馬書中的禱告，也穿插幾重要的相關論題，如不禱告的藉口、神至高無上的主權與人的責任等。
每章結束附有複習與思考問題，非常適合作為教會禱告聚會前的研讀材料。

D. A. Carson has updated his 1992 work A Call to Spiritual Reformation. He explores Paul's prayers and offers insights for modern readers and how they should be praying. The book should appeal to those in ministry as well as to many laypersons in the church. There are questions at the end of each chapter which lend themselves well to group discussions for small groups. The book is well-indexed. This review is based on an advance readers copy provided by the publisher through NetGalley for review purposes. ( )
