Austin Phelps (1820-1890) was a congregational minister, a
professor of sacred rhetoric and homiletics, and later a president
of Andover Theological Seminary. He wrote several books which were
widely read, but none as much as "The Still Hour." Some of the
subjects covered are quite unique, such as "Absence of God, in
Prayer," "Unhallowed Prayer," "Distrust in Prayer," "Indolence in
Prayer" and "Idolatry in Prayer." This is a book that will both
convict and encourage. It is perfect alike for the new believer and
the aged saint who has walked with Christ for decades. Don Whitney
wrote: "Remember that the great purpose for engaging in these
Disciplines is Godliness, that we may be like Jesus, that we may be
more holy. In The Still Hour, Austin Phelps wrote, 'It has been
said that no great work in literature or in science was ever
wrought by a man who did not love solitude. We may lay it down as
an elemental principle of religion, that no large growth in
holiness was ever gained by one who did not take time to be often
long alone with God.'"
