About this title

Synopsis

Prayer is one of those basic, yet majorly complicated, aspects of the Christian life. It brings peace, yet we struggle on how to do it. We know the words we use in prayer don't really matter (since God knows everything we're going to say or ask anyways), but because we're talking to the Creator of the universe we ought to put a little thought into what we say. We try to pray with all our might, and how quickly we get distracted from that time of prayer by our worries, our fears, our stomach growling, or the squirrel outside our window. Simply put, incorporating prayer into our busy lives is hard. We need a guide – a field guide. A field guide helps people to identify the mysterious and unknown. Field guides exist for the military, Scouting, hunting, fishing, birding, and for outdoor enthusiasts of every sort. This is a field guide about prayer, for men who want to learn more about this ancient Christian practice, what it is, and how to do it.
