QUIET TIME FOR CHRISTIANS
A Practical Guide to Daily Bible Reading and Prayer
Adrian V W Freer
Setting aside a regular time each day to read God’s Word and have a time of prayer is one of the most valuable disciplines for any Christian if they are to have a closer walk with their Saviour.
It is an indisputable fact that those who develop this routine become stronger Christians, have a deeper faith, are less liable to succumb to temptation, are more likely to make the right decisions in life, and they will persevere to the end in their Christian walk. In so doing they will lead happier, contented and more fulfilled lives. That being the case all Christians should surely want to read their Bible on a daily basis.
The aim of this book is twofold: firstly to assist those who already have a quiet time to make it more profitable and productive, and secondly to persuade those who do not as yet have a regular time alone with God to embark on the rewarding and lifelong journey of discovering the glorious truths recorded in God’s Word.

'I would recommend this as a readable and useful aid to help stimulate regular Bible reading.'
Evangelical Times

'Sound advice is given on how to read the Bible, questions to be asked, and certain pitfals to avoid.
This book will certainly be retained.'
British Church Newspaper
