One of the best books on the spiritual life there is. This one, and Brother Lawrence's The Practice of the Presence of God: The Complete Works of Brother Lawrence with Notes and Scripture References have had the most profound impact on my life (Buyer's note: There are cheaper copies of Brother Lawrence. I edited this linked edition, so I am a bit biased).

What makes Andrew Murray's book so good is that he says that prayer is an outgrowth of abiding in Christ and that our prayerllessness is fundamentally a lack of abiding, not simply a lack of prayer. In this way, he presents a challenging call to us to have a deeper Christain experience and out of that will flow a life of prayer.

There are no how-to lists. There is little on how to pray. There is a lot on a deeper spiritual life.

Andrew Murray addresses the problem of Prayerlessness. It is a problem that seems to know no generational boundaries. He cuts to the heart of the problem offering suggestions to this problems. If you are seeking to deepen your walk with God, this is a must read. This book is as relevant today or more so than when Andrew first addressed these issues.

This book is WONDERFUL!!! If you are serious about prayer this is the book for you. Need I say more?

I ordered this for my uncle a whole lot of them and many have read this and are simply amazed.
