Prayer, although an essential ingredient of the Christian experience, remains mysterious and foreign to many Christians. Realizing this, a well-known (but anonymous) Christian wrote this volume to teach Christians about the power available to them through prayer. According to The Kneeling Christian, all real growth in the spiritual life—all victory over temptation, all confidence and peace in the presence of difficulties and dangers, all repose of spirit in times of great disappointment of loss, all habitual communion with God—depends upon the practice of secret prayer.
