Prayer and the Believer" by Philip Cephas is a powerful call to revitalize the essential practice of prayer within the Christian life. The book addresses the fading "apostolic culture of praying" and challenges the notion that new revelations can excuse the necessity of sustained, fervent prayer. Cephas emphasizes that consistent prayer is not an option but a vital source of fire and strength for every believer, offering grace to those who feel they lack the drive to truly travail in the presence of God. It's a foundational guide aimed at rekindling a deeper commitment to an enduring prayer life.
