Inhaltsangabe

Praying with Ancient Israel surveys large portions of the Old Testament-including sections that are often overlooked, such as Ruth & Esther, the Prophets, and Wisdom Literature-and shows how each offers a vital, unique perspective on prayer. Also, since prayer touches every aspect of life, this book addresses how a theology of prayer in the Old Testament has abiding significance for Christians today. The hope is that Praying with Ancient Israel will provide fuel for the fire as you study about prayer and grow more deeply in communion with God.
