About the Book

Prayer can be wonderfully accessible to everyone. "In learning to pray, no laboratory is needed but a room, no apparatus but ourselves," Douglas Steere writes. Aware of how easily we can be intimidated by complex methods, Steere suggests that we begin by simply acknowledging our dependence on God. Prayer comes as a response to a God who "besieges us with love," he says. In Dimensions of Prayer, Steere answers common questions and concerns about prayer. Among the topics covered are petition, confession, adoration, intercessory prayer, and how to cope with dry times in prayer. This easy-to-read book offers new "pray-ers" an engaging introduction to prayer while providing valuable wisdom for mature Christians.

About the Author :
Douglas Steere has long been recognized as an authority on the spiritual life, having authored numerous books on the topic, including Doors into Life, Together in Solitude, and Gleanings (Upper Room Books). His extensive travels on behalf of the American Friends Service Committee and Friends World Committee took him to Germany, Scandinavia, Britain, Africa, and Asia. The breadth of his ecumenical involvement was impressive, leading him, for example, to represent the Society of Friends (Quakers) as an Observer Delegate at the Second Vatican Council of the Catholic Church. Until his death in 1995 he lived in Haverford, Pennsylvania, where he was T. Wistar Brown Professor of Philosophy Emeritus at Haverford College.

Review :
Douglas Steere knew greatness in every dimension of his life - as husband and father, teacher-scholar and writer, pioneer in interfaith exploration, citizen peacemaker, counselor and friend - and it was fed by a stream of ceaseless prayer. In this small but classic volume, he teaches us how to pray and does so with humanity, simplicity, and directness. This will help every reader understand the life of prayer as Douglas Steere did: not as a way out of the world but as a path that takes us more deeply into life's endlessly rich potentials. - Parker Palmer Author of The Active Life and To Know As We Are Known Reading [Dimensions of Prayer] is like sitting at the feet of a wise, warm spiritual guide who tells me the important things he has learned about prayer over a lifetime." - Tilden Edwards Founder of the Shalem Institute "Douglas Steere didn't merely write books, he lived them. In matters of the soul, Douglas Steere is a most reliable guide - a mountaineer in the life of prayer." - Eugene Peterson Professor Emeritus of Spiritual Theology, Regent College
