Where Prayer Becomes Real: How Honesty with God Transforms Your Soul by Kyle Strobel and John Coe – A Book Review

     

Our journey on growing a deeper prayer life began in the spring of 2020 with a sermon given by Robby Gallaty, pastor of Long Hollow Baptist Church in Nashville, Tennessee. He challenged us to, “not be asleep in the garden,” and to pray for an hour each morning during Lent. We have consistently maintained a dedicated morning prayer time since that Lenten season, not that this is our only time of prayer, but it is definitely the most focused. Over this past year God has indeed grown our prayer life. The most recent resource He has placed in our hands is Where Prayer Becomes Real by Kyle Strobel and John Coe. It is a very practical book, providing guided practice in ways to approach our Father God with honesty and transparency, to be real with God and have authentic communication with Him. Whether you are new to prayer or a veteran looking for a fresh wind in your prayer life, this book will be a great addition to your prayer closet.
