Lord, Teach Us to Pray

"Praying is like breathing," writes Mary Sharon Moore in her latest book, Lord, Teach Us to Pray. "Yet everyone breathes. So I like to think that at some essential level, everyone also prays." Not just another book on prayer, Lord, Teach Us to Pray offers an intimate look into a maturing prayer life. Through stories, observations, discoveries, and a rich instinct for movements of the Holy Spirit, the author carries her readers to discoveries of their own in the ever maturing life of prayer.
