Building Your Personal House of Prayer offers the reader a plan for an extreme makeover of their prayer life. Larry Krieder has used the Lord’s Prayer as the model and basis for the twelve lessons presented in the book. Krieder helps the reader build their own house of prayer by using twelve rooms as his model. He begins with a courtyard, which represents the entryway into the 12 rooms or elements included in the Lord’s Prayer.
Coming into the courtyard of praise and thanksgiving, I felt the presence of the Lord Jesus as I offered up thanksgiving and praise. Moving on to the family room I felt secure in the Father’s love, and turning my attention to silently listening to him as I meditated on His Word.
The stories Jesus told and the stories told about him are examined in great depth in Jesus: A Meditation on His Stories and His Relationships with Women. Father Andrew M. Greeley spotlights Christ’s view and treatment of the opposite sex.
