David Lane taught an adult Sunday School class on the topic of prayer. He recommended several books over the course of the class - here is a list:
The Hidden Life of Prayer and the Prayer-Life of Our Lord by David M'Intyre
Dave has mentioned what a sweet and pastoral book this is. He recommends reading the second part (Prayer Life of Our Lord) first.
Dave notes that this book is stern, but that sometimes stern is good.
Christian Meditation - Edmund Clowney
Clowney does not want “meditation” to be exclusive to Eastern Religions. He sets out to show what true Christian meditation looks like.
With Christ in the School of Prayer - Andrew Murray
Murray is popular with the South Africans among us.
A Simple Way to Pray - Martin Luther
Luther wrote this book to answer his barber’s questions about prayer.
