HOW TO PRAY is a basic primer on prayer. It will get us started, keep us going and uses every stage of life and its varied events to renew and expand our understanding of being alive to God through prayer.
Completely honest about the struggles and difficulties everyone encounters, it will help us discover how natural prayer is, even when we least feel like it.
Previously published under the title Praying Through Life this third edition is re-jacketed in the style of Stephen Cottrell's popular Do Nothing - titles. With his characteristic humour and realism, he offers a guide 'from an experienced beginner' for those starting out on the Christian journey and for those who feel there's more to discover. This is, he says, unashamedly, about the shallow end of prayer.Full of stories and examples from the Christian tradition and daily life, simple principles to follow, some prayers to use and helpful insights from spiritual writers through the ages, this is a book to inspire over and over again. A great gift for confirmation or adult baptism.

First published as Praying Through Life in 1998 Bishop Stephen Cottrell asks in his introduction whether we really need yet another book on prayer, and whether he, ‘a muddled beginner’, is the person to write one. I’m glad he did decide to produce this little book, as it will greatly help beginners and refresh old stagers in that relationship with God, which is prayer, woven into all of life. He has lots of helpful things to say, for example about praying with other people, prayer at work, many styles and situations, silence, difficulties with prayer, a weekly pattern and prayer over the year. He devotes considerable space to prayer withrather than for children and teenagers, which he feels have been ‘terribly neglected’ areas in Christian formation’. Now, I don’t think you can reduce prayer to a set of rules. So what do I make of Chapter 15, ‘Ten Golden Rules’? Well, I admit they do provide an eminently sensible and positive ‘check list and yardstick for our developing life of prayer’. And more than once, Cottrell does quote Chapman’s sound and popular advice, ‘Pray as you can, not as you can’t’. I recommend this book for starters and more experienced types alike.
