Opis

Too often, prayer seems only to be a dreary exercise that must be endured or a difficult skill that must be mastered. When we misunderstand its purpose and practice, we easily fall out of the habit of praying regularly. As a result, we miss one of the greatest opportunities to deepen our friendship with God. In The Transforming Friendship, James Houston explores the transforming power of prayer, illustrating how prayer begins to change our lives and then how the way we live changes how we pray. Through clear and compelling examinations of the Scriptures, Dr. Houston shows the often-misunderstood spiritual realities of prayer. And through candid accounts of his own struggles to pray effectively, he will encourage you to engage boldly in the life-changing practice of intimate conversation with God.祷告就是与上帝相伴。"祷告涉及神学与伦理两方面，需要思想，也需要行动。"侯士庭如是说。祷告不在乎争取表现，而在乎培养与上帝的关系，因为"上帝就是友谊"。我们若误解了祷告的目的，就无法坚持祷告。 侯士庭深入探索了祷告的方式，揭示出祷告改变生命的大能。祷告可以带领我们学会倚靠上帝，让他来医治我们过去的伤痛，消除心中的黑暗面，使我们勇敢面对他的爱，建立与上帝、与人为友的美好关系。对祷告的深刻认识将帮助我们冲破障碍，建立属天的友谊。
