Smith Effective Prayer Life
Chuck Smith
This module is a seven chapter work on Effective Prayer Life by Chuck Smith from the Calvary Chapel Church movement. I cannot recommend it 100%.
I cannot say that the Calvary Chapel movement is 100% in agreement with the Bible. See my post about Calvary Chapel, The Problems with the Calvary Chapel Movement or here Chuck Smith and Calvary Chapel Movement.
This particular book may be a very good book on prayer, but you should be very wary of it in consideration of the warnings on Chuck Smith and that movement.
Knapp The Ethics of Eternal Punishment is a single chapter work on the everlasting or eternity of hell. Christopher Knapp is a brethren author.

Solutions (for prayerlessness)
What can we do to overeóme our problem of prayerlessness? I have a few
practical suggestions. As far as time is concerned, we must discipline ourselves
and take time for prayer. You’ll never find time to pray. You must make time.
Life is made up of priorities. Since you can never do all that you want to do, you
must always sacrifice the less important things for the more important ones. A
wise man makes good use of his time and keeps his priorities in proper
perspective.Prayer is the most important activity you could ever engage in. It should be at
the top of your priority list of things to do. You need to take the time for prayer
even if you have to skip your time to eat or read the evening newspaper!
Secondly, find a place that is undisturbed. It may take some doing, but make the
effort. Many times I go for a walk or take a drive to get alone with the Lord. I
also wake up much earlier than the rest of my family. Prayer is more important
to me than my sleep, and the phone rings very seldom in the early morning.
To keep my mind from wandering, I usually vocalize my prayers. It’s true that
God knows what’s in my heart, but when I try to pray out of my heart my mind
often wanders. For a moment I’m thinking, “Lord, take care of this and that.
Thank you for this” and pretty soon I’m surfing again! But when I vocalize my
prayer, I have to think about what I’m saying. That causes me to concéntrate on
my conversation with the Lord.

Excerpt from the Tract: 1 Corinthians 6:9 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither… nor adulterers, nor effeminate… In other words, these people were doing the opposite of what God commanded them to do. Being men and having the command to act manly (1 Corinthians 16:13 Watch ye, stand fast in the faith, quit you like men, be strong), they acted like women. For women, it is the command of God that they act feminine, to be womanly. To seem feminine, these perverts usually use a dress or skirt, and they never use pants, because they know that by using pants they identify themselves being masculine, and using skirts and dress with being feminine. But it seems like an impossible thing to fathom, but even homosexuals know exactly how to identify as a woman, men being feminine, in their rebellion, and Christian women can neither define what it is that God commands them to be, how to dress themselves as women, neither how to act feminine.
How do you distinguish between a man and a woman? Pants in a man, and dress or skirt in a woman. Even common bathroom signs show this obvious point. The question is not how a woman dress should, but why don’t women, especially Christian women, dress like a woman should. It is not a matter of clarity, but a matter of no desire on the part of certain women. Are you a feminine woman? If not, why not?
