Most Christians pray, but do we pray like Jesus taught us? What do we really know about the prayer life of Jesus and how it shaped his time with the Father and his relationship with us? More than any other part of his ministry, Jesus' prayers inform and engage his intentions for how the gospel would change lives and affect the world. Looking at seven specific examples of when Jesus

goes away to pray, What the Prayers of Jesus Tell Us About the Heart of God

refines our understanding of Jesus' plans for his disciples (both in that first century and for every century to follow).

In this practical and inspiring book, readers will explore: The Lord's Prayer Jesus' prayer of praise that everyone can know God Jesus' prayer before raising Lazarus Jesus' prayer that God's name will be glorified Jesus' commitment to prayer Jesus' prayers in Gethsemane Jesus' prayers on the cross Studying these prayers reminds us of the personal and profound nature of the Trinity, shows us God's great love for his people, allows us to marvel at the magnitude of Jesus' sacrifice, and helps us prayerfully communicate with our God.
