One of the central points of this initial letter is the inadequacy of public prayers at church services to meet all the spiritual needs of the congregation. Lewis suggests that these prayers often fail to encapsulate the personal and communal aspects of prayer that might be more sincerely expressed in a more private or individual context.
Lewis also touches upon the nature of writing about prayer, comparing it to dancing about architecture-highlighting the difficulty of capturing the essence of a dynamic and personal act through the written word. He sets up a framework for an honest and exploratory dialogue about prayer, inviting Malcolm to engage with him in this complex discussion.

The first book of Lewis’s that I read. Love it still.

I read this book about twelve or fifteen years ago. I’m looking forward to reading it again as I listen 😊
