Prayer is often thought of as merely a means to an end - how can our needs be met, how can we release our burdens? But have we ever really considered what prayer is and why we pray? Do we understand just how our lives are impacted by our prayers?

Calling God to our aid is the first step. Now Joyce takes us further, showing us times when we should and maybe shouldn't pray, and explaining why some are more burdened to pray than others. And by examining the different types of prayers and providing samples of what the Bible greats prayed, Joyce introduces us to a richer, more interactive prayer relationship with God. When we need or want something, God instructs us to pray. When we need prayer most, Joyce shows us how to unleash its power.
