Gleaning from Puritan Prayers - Vol. 2

By Phoebe Bookamer and David Jonescue

"Gleaning from Puritan Prayers" was born out of the desire to see a no-cost alternative to the more popular "on the market" books on Puritan Prayers. Having been a co-operative effort from two members of the Facebook forum "Gleaning from the Puritans," (as the title of the book is a small nod to,) we are able to see firsthand many fellow Brothers and Sisters who equally enjoy and find edification in the writings of the Puritans, but not having the same access to for-cost Puritan Prayer books so easily accessible in the West. With this in mind, we set out to remedy this plight by bringing together a collection of various Puritan Prayers to be published, at no cost, in digital form; and to also be published in print and offered at the least expensive price possible. We would like to express our heartfelt gratitude to Monergism and Amazon KDP for making this possible. The process of choosing the prayers for this book was to look at the popular lists of known Puritan & Non-Conformists authors, and utilize their created works on prayer. We sought to do this instead of choosing a broad selection of individual prayers, or, mixing various prayers to create new ones, or, creating new prayers based on "Puritan" style. This is why you will see the chapter headings, at least in the digital publication, denote the author and subsequent work instead of individual headings on specific topics of prayer. Within that authors specific work there will be scores of prayers on different subjects. These Puritan prayers, are purely Puritan prayers. They are the prayers in the author's own writings, and the only editing done is to update spelling, and only modernize the most archaic words. We have chosen to break up the collection into at least 3 Vols. Included within the 3 Vols. will be, Lord Willing, the prayers from the Puritan & Non-Conformist works mentioned on the following pages. Lastly, we humbly ask that you please forgive any possible errors or imperfections in this work. Neither of us are experienced professional writers, editors, or publishers. We are just regular Christians who by God's grace, perceived a need, and sought to remedy it using the gifts and tools given to us by Him. We hope this publication blesses you, and proves to be useful, especially in the intended goal; that it would draw us closer to our Lord, and that all would be able to enjoy and be edified by "Gleaning from Puritan Prayers" regardless of income or region.
