Excellent- intensely practical - By: Mr. P. Craig, 18 Nov 2002
An overview of Paul's prayers, Carson highlights important factors & methods of prayer. At the end of each chapter, questions & suggestions force practical change on the part of the reader- tough, but very useful. Highly recommended, but be warned, it can take a while to get through.
excellent - By: , 20 Apr 2000
Most people who have read this & told me what they thought say that it's the best book on prayer they've read. I'm inclined to agree. But then I haven't read very many books on prayer.

Don Carson goes through Paul's prayers as recorded in his letters, examining what priorities he had in prayer & how he prayed.

The result is very good & challlenging. Much of what is covered is quite basic, but that is probably a good thing.

I'd thoroughly recommend this book if you don't think you pray enough, if you have trouble praying or if you think you do pray enough or find it easy. So pretty much alll Christians then.

It's not a complete manual - for one thing prayer is relational & for another, as Carson acknowledges, there is a lot both of teaching on prayer & of praying outside Paul's letters. Nonetheless, it is very good.
