The A.C.T.S. of Prayer Journal is for Christians at all stages of their Christian life.

It is a must for all Christians who are serious about developing, maintaining and improving a crucial part of their daily Christian life.
"I would like to write a beautiful prayer," writes the young Flannery O'Connor in this deeply spiritual journal, recently discovered among her papers in Georgia. "There is a whole sensible world around me that I should be able to turn to Your praise." Written between 1946 and 1947 while O'Connor was a student far from home at the University of Iowa, A Prayer Journal is a rare portal into the interior life of the great writer. Not only does it map O'Connor's singular relationship with the divine, but it shows how entwined her literary desire was with her yearning for God. "I must write down that I am to be an artist. Not in the sense of aesthetic frippery but in the sense of aesthetic craftsmanship; otherwise I will feel my loneliness continually . . . I do not want to be lonely all my life but people only make us lonelier by reminding us of God. Dear God please help me to be an artist, please let it lead to You." O'Connor could not be more plain about her literary ambition: "Please help me dear God to be a good writer and to get something else accepted," she writes. Yet she struggles with any trace of self-regard: "Don't let me ever think, dear God, that I was anything but the instrument for Your story." As W. A. Sessions, who knew O'Connor, writes in his introduction, it was no coincidence that she began writing the stories that would become her first novel, Wise Blood, during the years when she wrote these singularly imaginative Christian meditations. Including a facsimile of the entire journal in O'Connor's own hand, A Prayer Journal is the record of a brilliant young woman's coming-of-age, a cry from the heart for love, grace, and art.

Relevant questions about prayer answered from the whole witness of Scripture Praying is often the most common yet least understood practice of Christian spirituality. In 40 Questions about Prayer, scholar and teacher Joseph C. Harrod shares biblical insight on the nature and practice of Christian prayer. Harrod's emphasis on searching the Scriptures results in a trustworthy, practical guide to a vital aspect of Christian belief and behavior, equally appropriate for seminary courses, Bible studies, and personal understanding. The accessible question-and-answer format of 40 Questions about Prayer allows readers to explore the issues they care most about, such as these: • Does prayer change God's mind? • Does God hear the prayers of unbelievers? • What does it mean to pray in Jesus's name? • How does prayer affect evangelism, spiritual awakening, and revival? • What does it mean to pray "without ceasing" (1 Thess. 5:17)? • Do physical postures affect prayer?
Prayer is without a doubt a very important part of ministry for every believer and the church especially in the days we are living. When we pray we come to understand the mind and redemptive will of our Lord for our lives, specific situations, and the will of God for our family, church, community and nation. "The Church's greatest deficiency today is in power not in programs, strategies, materials or ideas. And power for ministry can be released only through prayer." Prayer should not be mechanical or burdensome. But fulfilling, powerful, consistent, relevant, cutting edge and a benefit for all; it is our desire for every person who uses this prayer journal to receive a fresh impartation in your prayer life that will infuse His Glory and breathe, and His love into your relationships. We anticipate the rewards that will come to you when you use this prayer journal and while you make a commitment to discipline your life in prayer.
