Beeke and Najapfour have brought together in one volume the teaching on prayer of the giants of the Reformation and Puritan eras: Luther, Calvin, Knox, Perkins, Bunyan, Henry, Edwards, and others. I was personally encouraged and stimulated to take my own prayer life to a higher and hopefully more productive level. All believers who have any desire to pray effectively will profit from this book." -- Jerry Bridges, a longtime staff member of the Navigators and author of The Pursuit of Holiness Details ISBN1601781202 Short Title TAKING HOLD OF GOD Pages 267 Publisher Reformation Heritage Books Language English ISBN-10 1601781202 ISBN-13 9781601781208 Media Book Format Paperback DEWEY 248.32 Year 2011 Subtitle Reformed and Puritan Perspectives on Prayer Imprint Reformation Heritage Books Place of Publication Grand Rapids Country of Publication United States AU Release Date 2011-02-01 NZ Release Date 2011-02-01 US Release Date 2011-02-01 UK Release Date 2011-02-01 Author Brian G.
