PRACTISING THE PRINCIPLES OF PRAYER
By David Pawson
Terra Nova Publications. 282 pages. £9.99
ISBN 978-1-90194-958-2

If you were to ask any Christian if they have ever struggled with the discipline of prayer, the answer would, I suspect, be ‘Yes’. A book which encourages us to understand and practise the principles of prayer is, therefore, a good thing.

This book is an attempt to do that and is adapted from a series of talks. Pawson in his preface hopes that its colloquial style is not distracting, but often the main points get lost in a series of anecdotes.
