Studies for Groups or Individuals.
How
did people like Daniel, David, and Mary talk to God? What can we learn
from their example? What can we know about God himself from the prayers of
Hannah, Job, and Paul?
These studies will help you discover new insights about
prayer, God's character, and the lives of his praying people. Your own
prayer life will be enriched as you study the great prayers of Scripture.
