Synopsis

This classic book of daily prayer is probably the best-loved of all William Barclay’s works. In it he tackles the questions, ‘Why and how should we pray?’, before leading the reader into a month of daily prayer with bible readings. There are additional prayers for festivals and special occasions and a year’s worth of suggested bible readings.

This new edition is long overdue.
