Over dit e-boek

“The chief thing we need for a life of prayer is to know that Jesus teaches us to pray ... Jesus’ teaching takes us up into the fellowship of His own prayer life before the Father. This is how Jesus really teaches. It was the sight of Jesus praying that made the disciples ask to be taught to pray. The faith of Jesus’ continuous prayer truly teaches us to pray” (Andrew Murray). With Christ in the School of Prayer begins at the spiritual elementary level and takes us step by step to the heights of prayer in faith, relying on God’s promise to those who desire Him: “Thou shalt seek the LORD thy God, thou shalt find him, if thou seek him with all thy heart and with all thy soul” (Deuteronomy 4:29).
