The Absence of Prayer Derrick Young

No other subject in Christianity seems to capture the imagination more than prayer. It is discussed, written about, preached about and largely misunderstood. Many see it as labor and toil. Others recognize it at communing with God. Most feel like failures when it comes to their prayer lives. Does this have to be the case? I do not believe it does. No believer has to suffer through failure in order to eventually establish a solid prayer life. The author lays out a well-marked path to developing a solid prayer walk. He speaks from insight and revelation as he points out the obstacles and shares the principles undergirding the subject. Implementing these keys to a successful prayer will see a more effective and consistent prayer life. Derrick Young was born to William H. Young Sr. and Mary A. Young, in Brooklyn N. Y August 21, 1967. Born and raised in Brooklyn with two other brothers, Melvin and Michael Young (his youngest brother, William H. Young Jr. was born Dec. 8, 1989), Derrick has, from a young age, striven to be a unique individual. He achieved academic excellence throughout his Junior High School years and has interests in poetry, singing and drawing. In the year 1992, Derrick married his Junior High School love and long time friend, Donna Libert of Brooklyn, NY. Their daughter, Champaigne, was born to them September of the same year.
