Prayer
by Timothy Keller
Keller's substantial book on prayer: its theology, its practice in Augustine, Luther and Calvin, and a daily pattern of meditation on Scripture followed by adoration, confession, thanksgiving and supplication. Thoughtful and demanding, for readers who want more than tips.
Read it if…
you are a Christian whose prayer life is thin and you want depth rather than technique.

Skip it if…
you want a short devotional; this is theology first.
Try instead: Forgive →
Three things you will actually use
- Prayer is conversation shaped by Scripture.
- Meditation bridges reading and praying.
- Adore before you ask.
Do this first
Adopt Keller's pattern for two weeks: read a psalm, then pray through it in the four movements.
Our verdict
Deep, demanding, rewarding.
