God, do you hear me?
If we're honest, that's a sentiment we’ve all shared. Prayer can be challenging and confusing. Often we feel abandoned, betrayed, and anxious. We don't know what to pray for, we don't know the words to say, and sometimes it feels like there's no one on the other side.
Through the pages of this book, pastor and bestselling author, Derwin Gray, will journey with you in learning and living the prayer that God always answers. This prayer is commonly called the Lord’s Prayer (Matt 6:9-13). It is the firm foundation God uses to build our lives on the Rock. It will help you break through to a completely new and refreshing prayer life.

“I think the only regret you'll have in diving into this book is that you didn't have it sooner. But for such a time as this, let's together open it now and prepare to be understood and overwhelmed by what's really possible with prayer.”
Max Lucado, Pastor & Author
“Derwin Gray gives readers a fresh word on prayer. He illuminates, illustrates, and communicates the hope we all need to find strength in divine communion. There is much we can do after we pray. There is nothing we should do before we pray. Pastor Gray’s words will help you bend your knees and then stand in faith.”
