The power of prayer is real. It can heal illness, win battles, and move personal mountains. Cultures and religions throughout the world use their own systems of divine communication for comfort, guidance, and more. Unfortunately, too few of us know how to tap into the power of prayer. How to Pray was written for everyone who wants to learn more about this universal practice. How to Pray begins by discussing the many benefits of prayer, including enhanced physical, mental, and spiritual health. You'll find that the power of prayer has not only been enjoyed by individuals and religious communities, but has also been validated in numerous scientific studies. Following this, the author explores the prayer and meditation practices of Judaism, Christianity, Islam, and Buddhism, in each case providing a clear explanation of that religion's or philosophy's approach, as well as true-life stories that show the significance of prayer in the lives of real people. If you want to learn more about the use of prayer all over the world--or if you simply long for the comfort of personal prayer--How to Pray will give you the knowledge, the guidance, and the inspiration that you seek.
