Another potentially controversial subject -- especially given Presbyterians' tradition of kvetching (and more) about prayer books -- but once more co-hosts, Korey Maas (Lutheran), Miles Smith (Anglican), and D. G. Hart (Presbyterian) avoid conflict.  It's a shame.  

This recording's subject is the degree to which confessional Protestants rely upon read or formal prayers, how that affects occasions (like men's Bible study) when spontaneous prayer may be in order, and the effects on devotion in the home.  Why did Jesus teach his followers to pray and what does that instruction imply for distinguishing better from worse ways of addressing God? 

Through it all in the subtext is the question of the sort of piety and even temperament that gravitates to either formal or extemporaneous prayers.
