Prayer is foundational to the Christian life, but many people don't understand it.What is it for? How does it work? Why do we do it? This short and accessible book explains what prayer is, why it exists and how it can encourage us in our life of faith.
Written by a pastor with years of teaching and counselling experience, Why We Pray doesn't simply tell readers why they should pray, but instead focuses on four blessing-filled reasons that will help us want to pray. Rather than feeling discouraged and disheartened by our inconsistency in prayer, we feel reinvigorated to approach God with confidence and joy, delighted by the privilege of talking directly to our heavenly Father.

'Prayer is a particular kind of relationship to God, not a technique. By examining the fundamentals of that relationship - who he is and who we are - with straightforward Bible exposition, William Philip helps you understand and enter into it.'
Timothy J. Keller, Former Pastor, Redeemer Presbyterian Church, New York City; best-selling author, The Reason for God
'There are not many books on prayer, and there are fewer good books on prayer. Here is a handbook on the subject that combines clarity and brevity and provides us with a thoroughly biblical and understandable framework for prayer. I commend it enthusiastically.'
Alistair Begg, Senior Pastor, Parkside Church, Cleveland, Ohio
'Philip grounds prayer in the nature of the triune God, thus avoiding the modern evangelical tendency to make 'the experience of prayer' central. When divine Sonship and not feelings define you, then you have real prayer with a real God. This book will bless you.'
Paul E. Miller, Director, seeJesus; author, A Praying Life and A Loving Life
'This book made me want to pray! It shows us what God is like - a Father who speaks, and whose adopted children are able to speak to him, by his Spirit. It is thoroughly biblical, honest, and entertaining. Philip takes our eyes off ourselves and our performance and onto God - Father, Son, and Spirit.'
Caz Dodds, Former Scotland Assistant Team Leader, UCCF
'Wonderfully refreshing, biblically realistic, and personally motivational - this book cuts through the stereotypes and guilt about prayer and presents us with our amazing privileges. It will do your heart good!'
David Jackman, Former President, Proclamation Trust, London
