The experience of having Tyler read to me with the book life changing , I pray.

Read at your own risk!

I have been following Jesus for over 50 years. And have enjoyed growing in my prayer life. However, this book has challenged me and is helping me to expand and deepen my intimacy with Jesus!

MAGNIFICENT!

I will write a total review when I've completed the book but for now I already feel compelled to give it a hallelujah. I'm just about to start chapter five and already it has gotten me to see where my life needs new evaluation. Chapter four was magnificent. This author is a blessing. Don't pass this one by. Get this book and begin it today. This book will make you focus on what Father-GOD sees when He looks at you. So for now I MUST get back to this read.
I've now finished the book and will afirm what I suggested earlier, it is GREAT. It will stay in my favorite grouping for another read thru in a year or so. I've already bought & begun Tyler's other book. His first. Keep it going Tyler. Great writing & narration. God blessed me thru your stories. Will remain a faithful fan.

Great resource for prayers

I really enjoyed the layout of the book with the different ways that we pray marking each chapter. The end of chapter highlights on-ramps for practicing prayer. This is a great introduction for those wanting to learn more and a great companion for those needing to be energized for prayer.

*note: the chapters are offset by one. I think the the last audio section should have been the first.

If you don’t love prayer but want to, I recommend reading this book!

This book has opened my eyes even more to the beauty and gift that prayer is. How to incorporate it in my everyday life. It breaks it down and makes it simple while still holding its reverence. I enjoyed this book so much I’ll probably read it annually to refresh my mind if some of the practical tools shared in the book!

I finished this book in two weeks!!

I absolutely loved this book and would recommend it to anyone. It give a great foundation to those who are just starting their prayer life, and also those who need a fresh fire for prayer. The practices give in it we’re practical ways. Tyler tells stories that captive the reader with power only giving glory to God!!

A powerful book

This listen will challenge and encourage any follower of Jesus. You will be led to many stirring invitations to grow not just a deeper and more practical life of prayer, but it has the potential to change your life.
