Summary

This book re-enlivens an age-old tradition of prayer as an expression of radical reliance on God, or non-compromising surrender to Life as it is. This approach expands the possibilities of prayer, elevating it beyond ordinary pleas for help, comfort, security and prosperity. The book invites a renewal of the inner life, by increasing one's desire to burn away superficial, safe notions of God, holiness, satisfaction and peace. Topics include: the prayer of transformation; building a life of prayer; lessons in prayer from people who prayed 'dangerously', and the use of prayer-writing as a means of igniting the inner life.
