Self-help ✦ Penny’s Take
Thoughts on Public Prayer
Samuel Miller · 2018
74/100
👍 Worth It
Miller's 1849 treatise occupies a genuinely rare niche: a book-length theological and historical treatment of public prayer that draws on New Testament evidence and church history to give practical counsel to ministers. Reformed and Presbyterian readers will find it substantive and rewarding, though they should brace for 19th-century verbosity — and anyone buying a 2018 Kindle edition should verify the formatting before purchasing.
