About this ebook
Everyone prays.
But no one finds it easy.
We all need a little help.
Pete Greig has been teaching on prayer - and leading a non-stop prayer movement - for over twenty years. Here, he puts his life's work into a response to the question everybody ultimately asks: how do I pray?
This down-to-earth introduction to life's greatest adventure will guide you deeper in your relationship with God, helping you to become more centred and still, clearer in discerning God's voice, more able to make sense of your disappointments and more expectant for miraculous breakthroughs too. It's full of honest, hard-won wisdom interspersed with real-life stories - some humorous, others moving - to equip and inspire your prayer life. Journeying through the Lord's Prayer, and accompanied by online videos from The Prayer Course, which has been used by more than a million people, it unpacks nine essential aspects of prayer: stillness, adoration, petition, intercession, perseverance, contemplation, listening, confession and spiritual authority.
From one of today's most visionary communicators, for those who've been praying for years as well as those who want to pray but don't know where to begin, How to Pray is the simple, life-changing guide you've been waiting for.

Pete Greig, the Prayer Man as he is known locally, has done an amazing job of writing a book for ordinary people in an extraordinary way. Thank you Pete, and thank you God.
