God Heard That!

As a theology professor, I've become convinced that many people are frustrated with their failure to establish and maintain a consistent prayer life. Can you imagine any of the Christians that you know saying something like "Man, I've gotta cut back on my prayer life" or "you know, I'm spending way too much time with the Lord"? Of course not. This devotional book addresses that frustration by introducing the idea overheard prayers. I have often had the experience of hearing a fellow believer pray and of sensing that she or he had just put into words exactly what I was feeling at that moment but could not express. This book collects those experiences, the overheard prayers that have allowed me to borrow a brother or sister's faith, to participate in their loneliness, to learn from their devotion, to be inspired by their praise, to feel their pain, to glow in their heart's aspiration, or to join in their repentance. I pray that your Christian life will be enriched as you overhear these overheard prayers.
