In the West, many Christians are "deconstructing" and/or "doubting" their faith. As a result, some people seeking to follow Jesus have become disillusioned with prayer--perhaps even skeptical about it. And yet there is still a great desire and longing for connection with God. What is needed, then, is a reconstructed account of prayer--one that is theologically robust, pastorally honest, and spiritually wise. Andrew Ray Williams seeks to provide such an account by providing meditations on childlike prayers in hopes that it might open new ways of understanding specific issues related to Christian faith.
