Description
Summary:Biblical perspectives -- Doctrinal perspectives -- Historical perspectives -- Contemorary perspectives.
"The T&T Clark Handbook to Christian Prayer is a theological companion to the practice of prayer and a resource for thinking theologically about prayer. The thirty-seven essays are organised into four parts. The first part reaches back to the biblical foundations of prayer. Each of the chapters in the second part breathes new life into classical doctrinal loci by investigating the doctrines of God, creation, Christology, pneumatology, providence, eschatology, and the Christian life from the perspective of prayer. The chapters in the third part explore the writings of some of the great theorisers of prayer in the Christian tradition. The final part gathers a set of creative and critical conversations on prayer from a variety of contemporary perspectives. Overall, this Handbook is seeking articulation of a theologically expansive approach to prayer - one that is deeply biblical, energetically doctrinal, historically rooted, and relevant to a whole host of critical questions and concerns facing the world"--
