"Thou, Dear God" is the first and only collection of sixty-eight prayers by Martin Luther King, Jr. Arranged thematically in six parts--with prayers for spiritual guidance, special occasions, times of adversity, times of trial, uncertain times, and social justice--Baptist minister and King scholar Lewis Baldwin introduces the book and each section with short essays. Included are both personal and public prayers King recited as a seminarian, graduate student, preacher, pastor, and, finally, civil rights leader, along with a special section that reveals the biblical sources that most inspired King. Collectively they illustrate how King turned to private prayer for his own spiritual fulfillment and to public prayer as a way to move, inspire, and reaffirm a quest for peace and social justice. With a foreword by Rev. Dr. Julius R. Scruggs, it is the perfect gift for people and leaders of all faiths, and an invaluable resource for spiritual individuals and those who lead worship.

The NIV Quest Study Bible features over 7,000 notes written in an engaging question and answer format that give insight into the common, uncommon, and sometimes perplexing passages from the Bible. You will have the opportunity to consider questions like “Why did God send angels to Jacob?," "What prevents God from hearing our prayers?," and "Why does God test us?” as you explore God’s Word using the many study helps. The original Quest Study Bible was conceived in 1989 when two publishing companies, Zondervan and Christianity Today International, worked together to develop a Bible that would answer the challenging questions that arose as people read Scripture. Focus groups around the United States evaluated the usefulness of potential study Bible features and helped select the features that would be included in this Bible. Then, more than 1,000 people received passages of Scripture and were asked, “What questions do you have about this portion of the Bible?” Their responses helped determine what kinds of questions the notes would answer, helping to create a resource that answers the questions that real people have asked about the Bible. Notes have been updated in subsequent releases to ensure that this Bible stays relevant and current to modern readers. Features: Complete text of the accurate, readable, and clear New International Version (NIV) Over 7,000 insightful notes arranged in a unique question and answer format Nearly 350 articles investigate the most asked questions about the Bible Book introductions that answer questions about each book, such as “Who wrote it?,” “Why?,” and “What should I look for?” Article index and expanded subject index Single-column Scripture text arranged in a modern, two-color page design Over 150 charts, timelines, and maps A reading plan with three distinct tracks to follow NIV Dictionary-Concordance 16-page full-color map section

Parents want the best for their children and they want to give them the best. But what is the most important gift they can give their children? A university education? A car? Or perhaps a good value system? While all of these have merit, the greatest gift parents can give their children is to teach them to develop a relationship with their heavenly Father through prayer. In TEACHING CHILDREN HOW TO PRAY Anne McFarlane masterfully addresses this very important topic – the prayer life of parents and children. She looks at the subject from various angles, considers the classic and difficult questions that the topic elicits, but also provides concrete, practical and understandable answers to the questions children often have.

A CLASSIC COLLECTION ON PRAYER is a compilation of three of the finest titles on prayer ever published. It intends to familiarize Christians with the source of power available to them through prayer. THE KNEELING CHRISTIAN is a classic book on prayer that answers the most basic questions Christians have about prayer: “How shall I pray?”, “What is prayer?” and “Does God always answer prayer?” In A SHORT METHOD OF PRAYER, Madame Guyon teaches this simple truth: Pray from your heart and not your head. She also shares the great difference between praying to God and experiencing God through prayer. HOW TO PRAY by R. A. Torrey covers a number of prayer topics such as prayer and obedience, praying in the Spirit, praying according to God’s will, prayer with thanksgiving, when to pray, prayer and revival, and much more! These powerful titles have stood the test of time, all the while pointing the way toward communion with God as well as the life-changing benefits that spring from it.

At the end of the book a study guide will help readers assess their progress as they work through the topics.
