"""It has been said that 'prayer is the soul's breathing itself into the bosom of its heavenly Father, ' thereby making it 'the highest and greatest activity of the soul.' In prayer, we pour out our hearts to the King of kings and Lord of lords, sensible of the mercy we need (confession and petition) and of the mercy we receive (praise and thanksgiving). Such prayer is not learned by following a list of rules or employing a set of forms; rather, it flows from a principle of new life. This reality is wonderfully demonstrated in the present volume, which brings together the insights of three Puritan divines: John Preston, Nathaniel Vincent, and Samuel Lee. Here is an edifying treatment of what it means to draw near to God in prayer."" --J. Stephen Yuille, professor of pastoral theology and spiritual formation, Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary"
