PUBLISHER DESCRIPTION

You can be totally honest with God. He wants to know exactly how you feel. When We Pray Like Jesus will help you express your deepest emotions to God and have confidence in His will for your life. You’ll explore Jesus’s prayer in the garden of Gethsemane and see His ultimate example of intimacy with the Father. Learn how to trust God the same way Jesus did when He said, “Not my will, but yours be done” (Luke 22:24).

My Review:
What a refreshingly honest and well-written book!  I’ve never read a book on prayer quite like this one. The author presented a process of how to apply the “two sides of the coin” of Jesus’ personal prayer in the Garden of Getheseme:  “Take this cup” and “Not My Will, but Yours”.  As she shared her own story in how she learned to pray in this way, my heart was touched and I knew that this has been a missing element at times in my prayers.   Mrs. Morgan guides us through a prayer process that’s at once both simple and profound.  

I received an ebook advanced reader copy to read and review this book. Before I was halfway through the book, I’d ordered a print copy.  I realized that this is a book that I’m going to need to read again as I highlight passages and journal my way through it. Even today, as I’ve finished the book, I know that my prayer life will be changed from this point forward. I’m highly recommending this book as a must-read on prayer.

I received a copy of this book from the publisher.  All opinions are my own.
