Prayer is essential to a flourishing spiritual life. In the Scripture, the Apostle Paul directs us to “pray constantly” (1 Thess 5:17). What is prayer?

One of the most well-loved works from the nineteenth-century English preacher Charles Spurgeon in his devotional, Morning and Evening.

By the Numbers: Scripture’s Glory or Mystical Secrets?
