About this book

Andrew Murray's beloved manual on prayer, first published in 1885. Arranged as a series of short lessons, it learns prayer from Jesus Himself — His teaching, His example, and His promises to those who ask in faith. Murray writes as a pastor, gently and insistently, inviting believers to enroll in Christ's school and learn to pray with confidence in the Father.
