20 Answers: Prayer (20 Answers Series from Catholic Answers Book 38)

What are the different kinds of prayer? I prayed for something and God didnt grant it. Why? Doesnt the Bible condemn repetitious prayers like the rosary? Why do I have to say traditional prayers in a church instead of just talking to God in my own way? Prayer is the Christians source of strength and peace, a channel of grace, a medium of joy and consolation. By it we open our minds to the One who made us and loves us, to give him praise and thanks and to tell him our needs. And we also open our hearts to him, asking him for wisdom and direction in our life. But prayer doesnt always come easily, especially when we have questions about how or why we should do it. 20 Prayer addresses some of the most common questions, giving you profitable understanding of what prayer is, strategies for praying more often in a busy day, and ways to advance in prayer toward its deeper, more loving communion with God. The 20 Answers Series from Catholic Answers offers hard facts, powerful arguments, and clear explanations of the most important topics facing the Church and the worldall in a compact, easy-to-read package.
