Talking with Father

Talking With Father: Prayer as the River of Kingdom Life

Prayer was never meant to feel like a locked door. In Talking With Father, Alan Braun invites you into something simpler and deeper than a formula: a living conversation with the God who already calls you His own. Drawing on decades as a pastor, and on the honest, sometimes painful moments of his own life — including the night his newborn son's life hung by a thread — Braun shows that prayer is not a technique to master but a relationship to enter.

Across fourteen chapters, you will learn to hear God in His Word, to pray from who you already are in Christ rather than who you're trying to become, and to bring your whole heart — doubts, grief, and all — into the throne room. Whether prayer has felt distant, difficult, or dry, Talking With Father offers a way back to the simplest and most costly gift God gave His children: access to Him, any hour, any place, always welcome.
