Why has God not answered my prayers What should I be praying for If everything I prayed for came true, would I be ready In this spiritual classic, Eberhard Arnold mines the riches of biblical teaching on prayer and the example of Jesus, the Hebrew prophets, and the early Christians to point us back to the prayer that pleases God most - prayer that has the power to transform our lives and our world. In a new reflective response, much-loved author Richard J. Foster relates Arnold's words to our contemporary reality.
Eberhard Arnold (1883-1935), the German author and theologian who started the Bruderhof community, is known for his opposition to Hitler and his influence on contemporaries such as Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Karl Barth, Martin Buber, Martin Niemller, and Paul Tillich. Some of Arnolds books available in English are Gods Revolution, Innerland, Why We Live in Community, The Early Christians, and Salt and Light. Richard J. Foster is one of the most trusted spiritual writers of our day. His books include Celebration of Discipline, which was named one of the top ten books of the twentieth century by Christianity Today, selling over one million copies.
