Who doesn't sometimes encounter problems in their prayer life? Who doesn't find it difficult to set aside time to pray regularly? Who has difficulty finding the right words to express their needs? How can our God answer so many prayers from Christians all over the world reaching out continuously over time? Epistles from Perpetua attempts to answer some of these queries using examples of people throughout history who have wrestled with their close communication with a heavenly Father. Praise and gratitude will bring all to the foot of the Cross to seek and find the healing gifts of comfort, consolation, and compassion.
