Scripture Index
"I discovered the practice of praying Scripture in March of 1985. It revolutionized both my prayer life and ministry more than anything since. It’s influence on my life has been incalculable. So I am eager to recommend William Varner’s book as a place to learn how to pray the Bible. His vast collection of Scripture passages and Bible-based prayers from Christian history are organized in a way that’s simple to follow and make the practice easy to understand. Once you’ve read this book, you’ll be able to open to any part of your Bible and know how to turn it into prayer."
