Resumen del Editor

Most of us have trouble finding time to pray. There's church and school and neighborhood and job and friends and recreation. And then the crises hit! Time for prayer seems an impossible luxury.

As a pastor, Bill Hybels knows hundreds of people with schedules like this. Yet in his own life he has made the hard discovery that prayer doesn't happen on the run. He decided he was too busy not to pray. Hybels's accessible introduction to prayer has already helped over 400,000 readers develop a rich and regular prayer life in the midst of life's business. Now, in this revised and expanded 10th anniversary edition, he includes new insights from his years of ministry and his own spiritual journey. He shows how to slow down to pray, listen to God, respond to what we hear, practice the presence of God and overcome prayer barriers. His fun and practical book offers the resources we need for growing, ongoing experiences in prayer.

Practical and Inspirational

Pastor Hybels does a great job both inspiring the reader to pray more and to provide practical ways to build and implement a richer time with God.
Over the years I have read many books on prayer but from my perspective this is one of the best. It is definitely worth the time to listen and I plan on going through it again in the next couple of weeks; this next time with my wife.

For those who think they are too busy to pray

I am often guilty of thinking I am too busy to pray. But I am wrong, and because of what I heard in this audible book, I am changing my habits today.

What does Robertson Dean bring to the story that you wouldn???t experience if you just read the book?

Roberston Dean is an excellent narrator. I always enjoy his presentations

Good book with some heavy thoughts

Good book overall. With Hybels had read it.

Had some good tactics/techniques for improving your prayer life and growing in faith with God. Had some heavy points that really hit you too. Will likely listen to it again so it all sinks in.

Simplified prayer breakdown

Very relatable, with practical advice and application of principles. Easy to understand. I really enjoyed this book, it will definitely be a book I read multiple times.

Great listen

This is a great book, well read and easy to follow. I listened to it on my way to work over several days, had several "realization" moments.

Opens your eyes on missed opportunities to pray

Would you consider the audio edition of Too Busy Not to Pray to be better than the print version?

Yes

What about Robertson Dean’s performance did you like?

The honesty and transparency he shares in this book let's me know that I'm not the only one lacking or slacking in my prayer life. I need to be more conscious of the free time I have in my life.

Any additional comments?

Have a pen a paper handy. There are wonderful takeaways in this book to refer later.

The Right Message at the Right Time

Repeatable. Many practical suggestions to consider adoption during a second, more thorough re-listening. At the end, the author focused on "the presence of the Lord"... not as a prerequisite, but as an offering of grace (my summation) and it was exactly what I've been grappling with. To the author...thank you and may the Lord bless you.

The narrator creates a personal experience for the

The narrator creates a personal experience for the listener and reader! I have the book too! This is a great read if you are serious about an intentional prayer life.

Most Practical Book on Prayer

I have not read many books, but I have listened to many sermons about prayer, its benefits in the life of a Christian. However, I must say this is the single most book that I have listened to from start to end (multiple times, by the way) that give very practical instruction on developing a life of prayer that yields positive and long lasting results in the christian life. I love how Bill incorporated his own stories throughout the book, making it more practical and relatable. He has a heart for God and may God continue to bless and protect Him in the ministry He's called Him in and may this book's instructions reach more people. I have personally started a routine to get closer to God through prayer, and I believe God will give me the courage and discipline needed to keep up for His glory in the mighty name of Jesus.
