Bread or Stone: Four Conferences on Impetrative Prayer is a book written by Ronald Knox and originally published in 1915. The book is a collection of four lectures that Knox delivered on the topic of impetrative prayer, which is the act of praying for specific things or outcomes. In the first lecture, Knox discusses the nature of impetrative prayer and why it is important for Christians to engage in it. He argues that prayer is not just a way to communicate with God, but also a means of shaping our own desires and attitudes. He also explores the idea of God's sovereignty and how it relates to prayer.The second lecture focuses on the role of faith in impetrative prayer. Knox argues that faith is essential for effective prayer, and that it involves not just believing in God's existence, but also trusting in His goodness and wisdom.In the third lecture, Knox discusses the concept of perseverance in prayer. He emphasizes the importance of persistence in prayer, even when it seems like our requests are going unanswered. He also explores the idea of spiritual warfare and how it relates to prayer.The final lecture focuses on the relationship between prayer and the will of God. Knox argues that our prayers should be aligned with God's will, and that we should be willing to accept His answer, even if it is not what we were hoping for.Overall, Bread or Stone: Four Conferences on Impetrative Prayer is a thoughtful and insightful exploration of the nature and practice of prayer. It offers practical guidance for Christians who want to deepen their prayer lives and connect more deeply with God.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
