Throughout history, Christians have sought guidance to bolster their spiritual walk with Christ and lifeofprayer. Even Christ's disciples would ask, "Lord, teach us to pray" (Luke 11: 1).

Editors Jonathan W. Arnold and Zachariah M. Carter provide context for each prayer through expert introductions, commentary, and biographical explorations.
