To pray is to know God. "If God really cared he would answer my prayer." "I hesitate to ask him anything." "I can't understand why he continues to ignore my deepest needs." Bingham Hunter recognizes that most believers have these thoughts from time to time. He encourages us to look at prayer from the standpoint of who God is. The true aim of prayer is intimacy with God. We pray effectively when we make him the desire of our hearts, Hunter answers our questoins about prayer by directing us to the nature and attributes of God and to our own lives. God responds not to our prayers but to who we are--what we think, feel, will and do. Prayer is communication from the whole person to the Wholeness that is the living God.

4.0 out of 5 stars
One of the best books on praying I've seen.,
By Greg Lawhorn (gplawhorn@earthlink.net) (Paso Robles, California) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The God Who Hears (Paperback)
I read Dr. Hunter's book during my first year as a student at Talbot seminary. His insights into the nature of prayer, and how we go about praying, were a powerful influence in my own relationship with Jesus Christ. I strongly suggest this book.

Best book on prayer I've ever seen,
This review is from: The God Who Hears (Paperback)
I don't know of any other books that focus on prayer like that this one does. Very well written. Discusses all the questions that people have about prayer. And most importantly takes a very Biblical perspective.

This review is from: The God Who Hears (Paperback)
This book really helped change my thinking on prayer and drew me to pray more, which is Bing's intent. I just taught a seminar on prayer and used several quotes from the book. I highly recommend it to anyone who is interested in deepening their relationship with God. It answers a number of practical and important theological questions about prayer in a readable style. Well done!
