An excellent collection of Puritan prayers that show the heart of the true Puritans. It is wonderful for devotional reading and your own prayer times. I have also seen several of these prayers used in Reformed services. My only complaint is I wish I knew the specific source of each prayer. ( )

Beautiful. Collection of prayers by eloquent men who had a deep love and respect for God. ( )

Really, just one word: Wow. This is a must-own for every believer. The depth and specificity of each prayer will be an encouragement, example, and lesson to the reader. Your own prayer life will be deepened as you listen in on the heart cries of those who've walked worthy before us. ( )

I'm loving this prayer book. Every page is a Puritan prayer from the 1600s. It's fascinating to recognize how much theology we share but how the emphasis and the language is so different. Their prayers are so respectful, not demanding. They are so focused on the Lord and who he is and his promise of salvation. They are very mindful that life is precarious and short and that this life is leading to the next. I think that by reading and praying with them my spiritual life, and my prayer life, has been significantly helped. ( )

Very helpful in my personal devotions as well as using in teaching/preaching. ( )
