Prayer is often referred to as the art of communi­cating with God. Some look at prayer as talking to God. Others see prayer as asking from God. 
Fay Williams brings a deeper dimension to the sub­ject of prayer through this book. The book simply cap­tured prayer as something beyond all of the aforemen­tioned definitions. It defines prayer as a fellowship and intimacy with God. It sees prayer as groaning and In­tercession. 
This book, "THE SCHOOL OF PRAYER" also dealt decisively with the different types and forms of Prayer. Prayer of Faith, corporate prayers, personal prayers, family devotion and public prayers are the various forms of prayers mention. Vigils and fasting was also touched and analyzed in this book.
