Acquiring the habit of ceaseless prayer has long been an Orthodox mystical tradition, and "Prayer In The Unseen Warfare" is a tremendous aid in understanding the union between man and God through prayer. Adapted from Spiritual Combat, a classical spiritual treatise of the 16th century, "Prayer In The Unseen Warfare" is written to guide Christians in their battle against the world, the flesh and the devil. Jack Sparks has masterfully adapted a treasured monastic work for today's Christian living in the modern world. Though Western in origin, the profound spiritual insights were recognized by Eastern writers such as Nicodemus of the Holy Mountain and Saint Theophan the Recluse (who subsequently edited and revised Spiritual Combat in accordance with traditional Orthodox beliefs). "Prayer In The Unseen Warfare" is easy to read and has study questions at the end of each chapter. Prayer In The Unseen Warfare is fully indexed. Also highly recommended are the two preceding volumes (Victory and Virtue) that, with "Prayer In The Unseen Warfare," now constitute a complete trilogy available as a set for $24.95.Sparks, Jack N. is the author of 'Prayer in the Unseen Warfare' with ISBN 9781888212037 and ISBN 1888212039.
