2. Page 8 – Prayer is a request: God sometimes answers ‘no’

3. Page 9 – Leaving God out of the courtroom

4. Page 10 – When we test God, He abstains from any intervention

5. Page 10 – When we test God, He intervenes in our test results in such a way that we will not notice that He actually answered the prayers that we tested

6. Page 11 – God answers prayers in a non-predictable way

7. Page 12 – Petitionary prayer is a duty, not a tool. It is not supposed to work

8. Page 12 – Petitionary prayers affect the person who prays, not the subject of the prayer
