A couple of years ago our small group went through a study by author Philip Yancey called “Prayer: Does It Make Any Difference?” The book is well over 300 pages, so obviously Yancey has a lot to say about prayer. But I’ve always remembered how he boils the topic of prayer down to the basics. Here’s what he writes: “If I had to answer the question ‘Why pray?’ in one sentence, it would be, ‘Because Jesus did.’” (p. 50)
