Why is it that prayer ranks so high on surveys of importance
and so low on surveys of satisfaction? Multi-award winning journalist and writer Philip Yancey has written books exploring many of the mysteries and wonders of the spiritual life
including faith
grace and suffering.
But perhaps his greatest challenge to date is to explain the most foundational aspect of our relationship with God - prayer.

What is prayer? What difference does it make? Why and how should we pray? What about unanswered prayer? How should we understand prayer for physical healing?

His quest to unravel these mysteries reads as the journal of a fellow traveller: observing
questioning
lamenting the unexplainable and rejoicing in the discovery of awesome insights.
His journey is beautifully illustrated with moving true stories drawn from around the world.
