Pathway to Prayer: Encouragements to Pray From Voices of the Past (Cruciform Press, 2023)

A glorious treasure trove of encouragement, that we might grow closer to God in prayer.

Thanks be to God, after 5 years of working on this project, Pathway to Prayer has been published and is available for purchase. Paperback copies are currently available for $14.50 at Reformation Heritage Books, 16$ at Cruciform Press, and $19 at Amazon with a kindle edition for $10.

Pray with me that Lord would bless this work as a useful aid to Christians who struggle to pray, that by it the Lord would 1) melt away our aversion and apathy toward prayer, 2) rekindle our desire and determination for prayer, 3) empower our resistance to every hinderance to prayer, and 4) ultimately lead us to pray, to really draw near to God and speak to him. Fathomless blessings would shower down on us and countless thanksgivings would arise to the Most High if we would regularly accept the Lord’s invitations to pray to him.

Testimonies:

“I have often thought it would be a good idea to compile a collection of quotes from godly saints of the past on the topic of prayer specifically. Pathway to Prayer is exactly what I had in mind, beautifully and comprehensively realized. Let us have the humility to recognize our poverty in this vital Christian virtue and seek by God’s help to recover that which has largely been lost.”
—Steven Lee, Founder, Sermon Audio

“This is a book to read slowly and meditatively, as each quotation is a sword to cut down our pride, a burning coal to ignite our hearts with holy desire, and a compass to direct us in the way of communion with God.”
—Dr. Joel R. Beeke, President, Puritan Reformed Theological Seminary

“As I made mark after mark on my copy, the passages made mark after mark on my own soul. I was being changed. I’m pretty sure I’m not the only one who desperately needs the transforming encouragements of this book.”
—J.D. Crowley, Missionary, Linguist, Author

“Whether it’s jump-starting a stalled prayer life or broadening and deepening a mature one, Pathway to Prayer brings invaluable direction and guidance from what is truly the wisdom of the ages. For the full experience, read it strait through, stopping regularly to meditate on the wisdom that leaps off the page, or selectively dip into any of the 50 topical sections for a laser focus on a particular area of need.”
—Cruciform Press

“[This] great living question has been considered by many: Will we really be determined to win back again the weapon of believing prayer that Satan has, in a measure, taken away from us? Let us set before ourselves the serious importance of this conflict. . . . In war, everything depends on each soldier being obedient to the word of command, even though it may cost him his life. In our strife with Satan, we will not conquer unless each one of us holds himself ready, even in the reading of this simple book, to say from the heart, “What God says, I will do; and if I see that anything is according to his will, I will immediately receive it and act upon it.” -Andrew Murray
