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. ( )

What a treasure of beautiful prayers and praises to God. I have referenced them on many occasion during specific times in my life and found them very comforting and convicting. ( )

This book is great for devotional use, but the user is truly under-served by Bennett. His labors fell short in that he does not give the reader any bibliography for the prayers. Neither author nor work cited are available for specific prayers compiled in this book. ( )

Down right convicting as to their level of knowing who they are in light of sin and the life changing power of the Cross ( )

This is the greatest book of its kind. I read it every day prior to my time of private worship. The puritans are the prophets of today -- this will help you to see and savor the supremacy of Christ in all of life. ( )

A BEAUTIFUL book! One of my favorite to give away. The depth of intimacy and godly expression in this book is breathtaking. One of my absolute favorite devotions. Each prayer brings you right before the Throne. Amazing. ( )

A superb devotional. The spiritual depth of these puritan Christians comes through on every page and calls us to be more devoted in our own walk with the Lord. ( )

Fantastic set of puritan prayers. Great for devotions. ( )

Highly recommend this work. It is good for your soul. I spent a year reading these prayers, and benefited greatly from the study. ( )

This is the best book of its kind. I don't usually do 'devotional' books, but this one is worth acquiring. I highly recommend it to anyone seeking insight into their own depravity and God's grace. ( )
