"Chester shows us how we become great pray-ers who pray great prayers simply through knowing three foundational truths about God: God the Father loves to hear us pray, God the Son makes every prayer pleasing, God the Holy Spirit helps us as we pray. When these truths are in place, we discover why prayer is easy, why prayer is difficult, and the arguments and priorities of prayer. Prayer is like a child's asking her father for help---and that's not beyond any of us. Here you will find the grace and encouragement to talk with your heavenly Father every day."--Publisher description.
