Offers an alternative way of understanding prayer. This work follows the career of Jesus as portrayed in the gospels, showing the part that talking with God plays in the development of Jesus' ministry.

"Other Prayers" opens up a new and alternative way of understanding prayer. This call to adventure and freedom in the name of Jesus is a substantial work that follows the career of Jesus as portrayed in the gospels, showing the part that talking with God plays in the development of Jesus' ministry. Three important strains in Jesus' life of prayer are identified: reflection, contemplation and meditation, with an examination of all the occasions on which the gospel writers picture Jesus in prayer. Prayer is a means of refreshment and openness to new experience rather than tedious duty or doleful self-torment. You will revitalize your walk with God by reading this book. Your prayer life will be supplanted by a life of prayer.

John Henson graduated in history and theology from Southampton and Oxford Universities, and is now a retired Baptist minister. He is the editor of Good As New, the radical new translation of the New Testament, and lives in Cardiff.
