Book description:

Released concurrently with Brian McLaren's series introduction, Robert Benson's In Constant Prayer explores the ancient practice of fixed-hour prayer, a structure for our lives where we can live in continuous awareness of God's presence and reality. This classic discipline of praying at fixed times during the day and night has transformed the lives of millions around the world. Learn what the apostle Paul meant when he encouraged the Thessalonian church to "pray without ceasing, for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you."

The Ancient Practices is a new eight-book series from Thomas Nelson Publishers, with staggered releases on individual titles through February 2010. Though various books have covered some of these spiritual disciplines, there has never been an attempt at a definitive series until now. Immensely compelling and readable, each classic book will feature a foreword by Phyllis Tickle.

 


Book Bargains Review

 

Author Robert Benson did a terrific job writing on the topic of constant prayer.  Paul tells us in 1 Thessalonians 5:17 to pray without ceasing...or never stop praying.  According to the author, our forefathers had a formal time of prayer every 3-4 hours, while maintaining a constant attitude of prayer.  He suggest we follow their lead and structure our lives so that we can be in continuous contact with God on a daily basis.  While it doesn't come natural to us, developing this discipline goes a long way to further our spiritual growth and relationship with God.

This is an excellent book.  I highly recommend it.
