“[Calvin’s description of prayer]…is a very practical orientation to prayer, which you will recognize if you read… It is not only a doctrine of prayer, but it is also a practical manual on how to pray. One could turn this… into a prayer itself rather easily.”
—Dr. David Calhoun of Covenant Theological University
