“These superb prayers model and teach a rich, deep devotion to God—Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Soaked in Scripture, they are wonderfully realistic about the life of faith.”
Lee Gatiss, Series Editor, The Complete Works of John Owen
“Full of arresting images and comforting truths, this is a precious resource to come back to time and again for spiritual refreshment, pastoral challenge, and pure adoration of our gracious and sovereign God.”
Sinclair B. Ferguson, Chancellor’s Professor of Systematic Theology, Reformed Theological Seminary
“There is something in Into His Presence to help all of us to experience communion with God in every situation of life. Tim Chester has given us a treasure trove.”
Eric Schumacher, Pastor, Author, Ours: Biblical Comfort for Men Grieving Miscarriage
“All Christians find themselves, from time to time, knowing they need to pray but not knowing how. These prayers, taken from the writings of our brothers and sisters of the past, are a blessed guide to prayer when we lack words of our own.”
