Great Book on Unceasing Prayer March 18, 2008
This is a great book for all people trying to pray without ceasing. I could not read this though cover to cover, I had to take it a little at a time. For me, it answered questions I had about the Jesus Prayer. If you do buy this book and are not familiar with the Jesus Prayer I highly reccomend first reading "The Way of the Pilgrim and the Pilgrim Continues His Way."
A Treasure January 22, 2008

A beautiful book full of amazing treasures of spiritual insight.Reading this book and books of today on prayer do not seem to be even about the same subject. This authur is communing with God not looking for "a personal relationship with Jesus"
A Sure Guide December 21, 2007
Beautiful, simple, instructive, and wise, this is one of the books you want to open daily... and should! An invaluable and sure guide for the life of prayer.
Simplicity Itself November 6, 2006
in as few words as possible i would like to say that this is like a bible for me - i have just started reading it and already i can feel the sheer power in its utter humility - the way in which the use of prayer is explained to be the essence of any method or practice is unique in it's directness - i have not read a book on Christian Prayer or any Christian book for that matter which covers simply and unswervingly, what i call, the Heart of All Religion - i have always been scared by the word 'orthodox'...until now - now i understand what the word means to me - i recommend this book over any other like it - i guarantee you will not be displeased - now for the practice...

This is a classic book on how to pray with mind and heart. It is used by our church for a weekly class discussion and review. The popularity of this class is highly rated by those attending.
For getting prayer from the heart in your life, this is a great beginning.
