This review is from: The Book of Prayers: A Man's Guide to Reaching God (Hardcover)
I bought this book several ago but only recently decided to read through it. I was very disappointed. As is true with many prayers that are offered by Christians, the prayers in this book seem to be written as an excuse to sermonize and teach the reader, rather than to earnestly communicate with God. I thought that they were very poorly written.
Of course, it is extremely difficult to write prayers for others to read and pray. Prayer is such a personal exercise, that this concept of written prayers almost always seems stilted and forced. The exception to this reality are prayers that come from the Bible, like the Lord's prayer. In any case, I did not find this book to be very helpful. I appreciate the author's intentions, but would not recommend this book of prayers. |
