But what, theologically speaking, is going on when we pray? What does prayer have to do with religious belief and action? Does prayer make a difference? \u003ci\u003ePrayer: A Guide for the Perplexed\u003c\/i\u003e addresses these and other key questions regarding the Christian theology of prayer. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBeginning with Evagrius of Ponticus's 'On Prayer', Ashley Cocksworth finds in this early document a profound expression of the 'integrity' of the experience of prayer and theological thought. Seeking throughout to integrate systematic theology and the spirituality of prayer, individual chapters explore the meaning of some of the core doctrines of lived Christian faith - the Trinity, creation, providence, and the Christian life - as they relate to the practice of prayer. Complete with an annotated bibliography of sources on prayer to promote further reading, this volume appeals to academics and general readers alike.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ashley Cocksworth\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0567226670\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780567226679\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bloomsbury Publishing PLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/12\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.75lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.40h x 5.40w x 0.80d","brand":"Ashley Cocksworth","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44076066603263,"sku":"9780567226679","price":35.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b56129e6-5933-4f10-961d-58821ed8e66e.jpg?v=1685462985","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/prayer-ashley-cocksworth-9780567226679","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
