Mystically Wired

This is a good book especially for people who don't know how to pray. If you don't know why you should pray, this book is also for you. All Christians know that they should pray, and apparently there are some who don't know how. I personally find this hard to believe, since I've prayed since I could talk. But for those of you who are converts or neglected your spiritual lessons check out this book.

Wilson starts off explaining why we all should pray, essentially asserting that we are "hardwired" to pray. I'm sure that just about everyone (atheists included) have prayed. Your casual asking the air around you for something, your chants at football games, your whispered pleas for help before a stressful engagement (test, big game etc...). This book teaches that we all will pray, it's just a matter of who you're praying to.

The rest of the book teaches how to pray. Wilson explains that there are several different ways to pray depending on what you're praying for. Throughout the book Wilson uses personal illustrations of how praying changed his life and what techniques he used. Many people will tell you that praying actually changes something within you and there are studies out there that show that this is so. So for the spiritually weak, and cynical the research supports the merit of this religious practice.

For the spiritually confused (Satanists, Wiccans, and other pagans) if you want your prayer to become effective and you have real interest in spending the afterlife in comfort, check out this book and start praying to the one and only God. But know that prayer isn't enough, you must be sincere and have accepted Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior.
