Are You a 'Prayer Wimp'?
Max Lucado says his new book, Before Amen: The Power of a Simple Prayer, is meant to be a prayer 101 guide to those who struggle to connect with God.
"There are some people who for whatever reason really get prayer. It's not challenging for them. Maybe it's there personality bent; maybe it's a certain level of faith. Many of us however really struggle with the whole idea of prayer," said the bestselling author.
In fact, statistics from Lifeway Christian Resources show that only 48 percent of churchgoers actually pray every day.
As a self-professed "prayer wimp," Lucado wants to help those who encounter difficulties such as wandering thoughts or even sleepiness to gain a better understanding of prayer and a new focus.
