The Prayers of Jeremiah is not a how-to, one-size-fits-all treatment of prayer. Mr. Sharp's novel look at prayer through the experiences of the prophet Jeremiah is more about the One to whom we pray than how we are to pray. The Prayers of Jeremiah is also not a passive book, to be read in the bathtub or when traffic is slow. You will be challenged to think for yourself about the events that swept Jeremiah along: betrayal by friends and family; national rejection; international upheaval and war; and ultimately exile. And through it all, the question Mr. Sharp holds before us is, "What kind of Person is on the other end of our prayers?" The author contends that Jeremiah's experiences reveal that prayer is a conversation that God must begin. It doesn't start when we bow our heads and fold our hands. It starts with His actions and words.Sharp, Paul Thomas is the author of 'Prayers of Jeremiah ', published 2005 under ISBN 9780595372225 and ISBN 0595372228.
