About this title

Review:

'Your praying may never be the same again!' is the bold statement on the back of Steve Brown's Approaching God - How to Pray. Steve describes himself as 'not a good man', and shows through his own struggles to maintain a regular prayer life how to pray with the heart and not the head. He explains that prayer is 'not just for experts. It's for people who mess up, who have doubts, and wonder' and that 'the only qualification that is needed for being in a relationship with God is to be unqualified.' The author's easygoing style and frank confessions of imperfection make Approaching God an enjoyable read, and through the author's own searching comes wisdom on aspects of prayer such as commitment, praise and the hot potato that is unanswered prayer. Through 'silly' illustrations - the author's own description - and serious experiences, the reader is led through the minefield that is prayer and given a chance to appear on the other side happy to pray in the way that suits them best. -- War Cry

My name is on the long list of those who have felt the impact of the ministry of Steve Brown. I have devoured his audio tapes and delighted in his books, I'm thrilled to get my hands on this one! -- Max Lucado, author

Through stories and struggles he explores the essentials of prayer. He encourages prayer from the heart not from he head, for he explains, 'the only qualification that is needed for being in a relationship with God is to be unqualified.' -- Renewal Magazine
