The Three Miraculous Prayers of King Hezekiah tells the story of the good Jewish King Hezekiah, who lived, ruled, struggled, prayed, and saw incredible miracles 2,700 years ago. King Hezekiah was a man desperate for God's help in ways that we can all relate to today. While you may not be a king-with all the benefits and troubles it brings-you probably have people who depend on you for guidance and protection. In today's world, you may find yourself unemployed, seriously ill, alone and facing great adversity, or dealing with all kinds of other troubles that seem way too big to handle on your own. In The Three Miraculous Prayers of King Hezekiah, author W. D. Crowder shares the story of King Hezekiah to illustrate how we can overcome odds that sometimes seem insurmountable in order to survive troubling times. Crowder explores how a seemingly obscure Jewish King of the tiny southern Israeli Kingdom of Judah dealt with and miraculously overcame many of the same issues that personally impact you today. The example of this good man King Hezekiah may astonish you. The Three Miraculous Prayers of King Hezekiah tells a fascinating, true story supported by the Bible and other historical records and addresses problems that are relevant to us today in these troubling times.
Every day is filled with opportunities for prayer as we ask for help in facing life's inevitable difficulties, or seek ways of expressing our feelings of gratitude, love and joy. This special edition of some of the most moving, inspiring and comforting meditations and prayers broadcast on BBC Radio 4's Prayer for the Day is designed to be a true companion through our daily routine, as we make decisions, overcome challenges and open our hearts to others and to the world's wonder. In these uncertain and insecure times, these prayers from a broad spectrum of religious traditions show how the faiths are united by a desire to talk with God. And they indicate how, with God's help, our days can be times of healing, belonging, laughter and love, through the ordinary circumstances of our lives.
In Our Father Who Art On Earth Jose Tolentino Mendonca draws on the expertise of biblical texts, but also to the data of anthropology and literature, to dare to 'open-up' the Our Father to believers and non-believers, and point out new keys to a spiritual reading of this text that is the heart of Christianity. The result is absolutely unusual. The reader is summoned to an inner journey that they will not forget.
Towns reveals the power of prayer in this fascinating look at the Lord's Prayer. Each chapter examines a line from the prayer, revealing power points for every believer desiring a more dynamic prayer life.

The Lord's Prayer includes everything you need to ask when you talk to God . . . it is a model prayer that teaches us how to pray."
