How to Pray

A Simple Guide for Normal People

by Pete Greig

Pete Greig is a world­wide author­i­ty and the face of a gen­er­a­tion when it comes to prayer. One of the founders of the 24 – 7 prayer move­ment, he has seen, expe­ri­enced, and chron­i­cled amaz­ing works of God in the world. While you might imag­ine him to be puffed up, Pete Greig is entire­ly the oppo­site. He is enchant­i­ng, down-to-earth, friend­ly, and most of all, very nor­mal – and yet he tells pre­pos­ter­ous tales about prayer (and they’re true). He is basi­cal­ly a reg­u­lar dude who loves to talk with God.

How to Pray is writ­ten to evoke a pas­sion for prayer in everyone―the com­mit­ted fol­low­er of Jesus as well as the skep­tic and the scared. The enor­mous bless­ing of How to Pray is that it is acces­si­ble, full of sur­pris­ing sto­ries of answered prayer, and tremen­dous­ly engag­ing. The basic idea is that prayer is a con­ver­sa­tion between you and God. Pete Greig demys­ti­fies and reen­chants prayer, help­ing you to find prayer achiev­able and enjoy­able, and ulti­mate­ly life-giv­ing and life-chang­ing.

How to Pray is designed to be used togeth­er with The Prayer Course (a free video cur­ricu­lum asso­ci­at­ed with the Alpha course), mak­ing it use­ful for per­son­al and group or church-wide reading.

Recommendations

How to Pray is an instant spiritual classic. Accessible for someone new to spiritual things, but deep enough for someone who has been following Jesus for decades, this is truly a book for everyone. How to Pray is a book with heart, deep wisdom, generosity for where you are on the journey, practical tools and tips, and a gentle way of increasing the reader’s passion for prayer. Highly, highly recommended.
