Hold on! Is it a book about prayer? Another book about prayer? Is there any possible way we can benefit from yet another book on the subject of prayer? There is not much new in this new book. As Keller says, the best books on prayer have already been written. So instead of pursuing novelty see The Prayer of Jabez or The Circle Maker or a thousand other books Keller looks to timothy keller prayer pdf download past, to the deep wells of Christian history, and draws heavily timothy keller prayer pdf download Augustine, Luther, Calvin, timothy keller prayer pdf download, Owen, and Edwards and, in more recent history, Edmund Clowney.
He understands that any new insights on prayer tend to go farther from rather than closer to biblical truth. Instead of looking for new secrets to discover or keys to unlock, Keller looks for fresh ways of saying those old things.
Again, there is nothing profoundly new in this new book, but that is its strength, not its weakness, timothy keller prayer pdf download. Christians tend to describe prayer in one of two ways: communion-centered or kingdom-centered. Prayer is both conversation and encounter with God. This is not to say he advocates the kind of prayer you might find among the Roman Catholic mystics whose books remain so popular today.
In fact, he pushes firmly against mysticism, against meditation as being an emptying of the mind rather than a filling of it, or against rapturous but mindless prayers. But still he leaves plenty of room for timothy keller prayer pdf download communion with God, and for the illuminating work of the Holy Spirit who may bring Scripture to mind and cause us to understand it better in those times we are prayerfully meditative.
Even as he teaches these things, he leans on the Reformers and Puritans. Over time, though, I came to see that this is not the case. There is much about prayer we cannot understand and may never understand on this side of eternity and perhaps even after. Keller peers into these mysteries, but he does not attempt to resolve them.
He understands that prayer will always be difficult and never over-promises, never lays out a plan that, if followed, will supposedly bring guaranteed or overwhelming results. We can grow in our understanding of prayer and our skill at prayer, timothy keller prayer pdf download we will never solve it, and will never pray perfectly, timothy keller prayer pdf download. Few books on prayer pause to actually define prayer, but Keller gives it his best shot.
Prayer, he says, is a personal, communicative response to the knowledge of God. They pray because they have some knowledge of God through his creation. But as God awakens the hardened hearts of his timothy keller prayer pdf download, Christians are now able to pray on the basis of much greater and much more specific knowledge. He has written a winsome, well-rounded book that leads through theory and into practice.
It is one of the strongest books on prayer I have ever read and it receives my highest recommendation. Format: Hardcover. There are two topics I try to read books on regularly: the gospel and prayer. I read on the gospel because I need it to grow me, timothy keller prayer pdf download humble me, timothy keller prayer pdf download, to sanctify me, and to help me remember what God has done in Christ to save me.
I read on prayer because my prayer life needs encouragement and guidance to strengthen my desire and skills at communicating with God. Naturally, when I heard one of my favorite authors, Timothy Keller, was coming out with a book on prayer, I was eager to get my hands on a copy and dig in. Prayer: Experiencing Prayer and Intimacy with God is a book that was birthed out of Keller's realization of his own shortcomings in prayer. Both he and his wife were diagnosed with diseases during a certain season of their lives his was thyroid cancer and hers was Crohn's disease.
This coupled with pastoring in Manhattan around the time of the September 11th terrorist attacks forced Keller to his knees and really begin to practice and wrestle with the concept of prayer. Readers will sense within the first five pages just how well-read and well-thought-out Keller is in dealing with prayer. Keller sought to write on the essentials of prayer from a "theological, experiential, timothy keller prayer pdf download, and methodological" perspective, and thus do something most books on prayer seldom do 1.
A Brief Summary This book is divided into five parts, each comprising from two to five chapters, timothy keller prayer pdf download. Part one is called "Desiring Prayer," which timothy keller prayer pdf download the "why? Part two, "Understanding Prayer," timothy keller prayer pdf download the many differing views of timothy keller prayer pdf download from many vantage points including world religions, the non-religious, and various Christian traditions.
He then moves to discuss how prayer is our response timothy keller prayer pdf download God's Word and share how the Trinity is essential to true prayer. Part three, "Learning Prayer," interacts with great theologians from church history Augustin, Luther, and Calvinsharing their instruction and methods in prayer.
I was especially helped by Keller's interaction with Luther's teaching on meditation on Scripture and the Holy Spirit "preaching to us" in prayer. Keller then moves on to prescribe modeling our prayers along the Lord's Prayer before laying out a biblical and balanced grid of what prayer is, what it requires, what it gives, and where it takes us. Part four, "Deepening Prayer," dives deeper into meditation and the experiential aspect of prayer, interacting with theologians like John Owen, timothy keller prayer pdf download, J.
Packer, Jonathan Edwards, and C. Lewis along gleaning truth and offering critique of medieval and Catholic practices of mystical prayer. Part five, "Doing Prayer," practically teaches just that: the place of praise in prayer, the role of the gospel in prayer, and our ability to timothy keller prayer pdf download for help in prayer. The last chapter offers a guide for daily prayer, sharing sample devotions and methods to practice.
My Experience Simply put, I was floored by Prayer. There is much that he mentioned that will change my life and practice of prayer. Here are a few things that have been echoing in my head the past several days: --We are to pray in Jesus name, not our own.
This means that our basis for approaching God is the finished work of Christ and that we shouldn't think our good works or performance earns us access to God.
If we are in Christ, it also grounds our prayer in reality and not circumstances around us. They should be accompanied with theological reasoning and self-examination. What Center Church: Doing Balanced Gospel-Centered Ministry in Your City did for equipping and encouraging gospel-centered ministers, Prayer does for equipping and encouraging gospel-centered pray-ers.
The rich theology of Prayer grounded me in biblical truth and motivated me for prayer; the experiential aspect guided me in understanding more of what prayer is like while pushing me to dig deeper; and the methodological section equipped me to develop my own practical and sustainable life of prayer that makes a difference. I feel like I've just gone through a masters-level class on prayer. Keller interacts with a variety of authors and theologians and puts together a scholarly--but not overly-scholarly--treatment on prayer that may be the most well-rounded book on prayer there is.
Who This Is For Prayer is a book for people who want biblical grounding in prayer, a gospel motivation to pray, and practical methods for prayer. This book might be hard for some due to its somewhat scholarly nature Keller writes for a well-educated congregation in Manhattantimothy keller prayer pdf download, but shouldn't scare people away who are serious about maturing in their understanding and experience of prayer.
